Whitsunday is an older term for Pentecost, de- rived from the white robes worn by baptismal candidates. Baptisms, often held outside in rivers, were frequently postponed from the Easter Vigil to Pentecost due to the chilling weather of cold northern European climates. Today’s Sequence, called the “Golden Se- quence,” is traditionally sung at Pentecost; it begins: Veni, Sancte Spiritus/Et emitte coelitus/Lucis tuae radium (Come Holy Spirit, send forth the heavenly radiance of your light). Follow along in along in your hymnals; the English translation is given there as well. For Pentecost, we will sing a choral Kyrie and Agnus Dei by Rodrigo de Ceballos (c. 1525-1572) from the colonial music archive in Guatemala City. He was born in Aracena (Huelva), and was ordained a priest in Seville in 1556. He was named maestro di capel- la in Malaga in 1554, in the cathedral of Córdoba in 1556, and in the Royal Chapel of Granada in 1561. He is a composer of the An- dalusian school, alongside better-known composers such as Francisco Guerrero (who, with Pedro Fernández de Castilleja, gave him his holy orders) and Cristobal de Morales. His works are preserved in various Spanish and Latin American cathedrals. Gregor Aichinger (1564-1628) was a Catholic priest and organist to the powerful merchant-banker Fugger family in Augsberg. His Factus Est Repente is one of the most popular motets of all time for both Pentecost and Confirmations. Published in 1606, the traditional elements of plainchant and fugue are made to be fully expressive of the spirit and meaning of the text. The opening gives the impression of suddenness, the descent in pitch indicating the descent of wind from heaven. Later, he employs a double canon, one a psalm tone in augmentation, another a descant. There are percussive repeated notes and homophonic sections reminiscent of the Venetians, and no surprise there, since he also was one of the first German composers to use a basso continuo.

  • Marcela García∗ RODRIGO DE CEBALLOS's MAGNIFICAT CYCLE
    21 Marcela García∗ RODRIGO DE CEBALLOS’S MAGNIFICAT CYCLE ON THE EIGHT TONES: A DESCRIPTION AND COMPARISON WITH SIMILAR CYCLES BY CRISTOBAL DE MORALES AND FRANCISCO GUERRERO Abstract Until recently the music of Rodrigo de Ceballos (ca. 1525/30–1581) had been largely ignored by musicologists under the assumption that most of it was lost or preserved in deteriorated manuscripts. Research by the musicologist Robert Snow proved this assumption wrong and placed the composer among important figures of Spanish music during the sixteenth century. Ceballos’s style is influenced by the music of two major Spanish composers of the sixteenth century, Cristóbal de Morales (1500–1553) and Francisco Guerrero (1528–1599). Morales, Guerrero, and Ceballos wrote polyphonic settings of the odd– verses of the Magnificat text on the eight tones, to be sung alternatim with the even–numbered verses at Vespers. Ceballos’s Magnificat Cycle was sung for several centuries at the cathedral in Bogotá, Colombia, and the manuscripts extant there constitute the only surviving source for the setting. The settings by the three composers present simmilarities in the number of voices, number of measures per verse, number of points of imitation, tone transposition, use of cantus firmus, use of a rhythmic motive, cadences, and use the finalis from the monophonic intonation. After a description of general bibliographical data and interactions among the three composers, this study examines the main characteristics of the Magnificat setting of the odd verses of the text on the eight tones by Ceballos and its similarities and differences with comparable cycles by Morales and Guerrero.

  • Gramophone the World’S Best Classical Music Reviews
    GRAMOPHONE THE WORLD’S BEST CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS ESQUIVEL Missa Hortus conclusus & other works View record and artist details Author: Edward Breen Juan Esquivel (c1560 before 1630) is another Spanish 16th-century polyphonist thus far denied the attention he deserves on record. First known to us as a choirboy in Ciudad Rodrigo near the Portuguese border, he trained under choirmaster Juan Navarro – one-time teacher of both Victoria and Vivanco – so if nothing else, his heritage is assured. This programme of his works is largely edited by Bruno Turner, who also provides the booklet note, and I should like to note Turner’s great achievement in bringing so much of this music to the attention of performers and their public. This disc comprises the Missa Hortus conclusus, a loose parody of a motet by Rodrigo de Ceballos (c1530-1581) performed first. The Mass is then interspersed with motets by Esquivel and ends with his setting of Alma redemptoris mater before the disc continues with a sequence of music for Vespers. De Profundis are an ensemble I admire. Founded by Mark Dourish to explore Renaissance music through male voices at low pitch, they work with visiting conductors and have previously recorded albums of music by Ribera with David Skinner (9/16) and Vivanco with Robert Hollingworth (8/18). They certainly fulfil their brief here: low, bold and more demonstrative than many of the English ensembles who also explore Iberian polyphony, their sound is rich – at times too rich on the top line for my taste – and anchored by the attractive grain of the bajón played by Nicholas Perry.

  • Spanish Renaissance Polyphonists in International Encyclopedias
    Spanish Renaissance Polyphonists in International Encyclopedias "T HE R1VALS-Hawkins, Burney, and Boswell," published in The Musical Quarrerly, XXXVl/1 (January. 1950), 67-82, documented insofar as was then possi­ blc, Burney's spite against Hawkins. Roger Lonsdale in his biography. Dr. Charles Burney (Oxford: Clarendon Press. 1965), went much further in digging the skeletons out of Burney's closet. In his chapter 5 entitled "Burney and Sir John Hawkins" (pages 189-225), Lonsdale adduced much new evidence showing how various were Burney's schemes to undermine Hawkins-whether by anonymous lampoons, ghost­ written attacks, or thc clever manipulation of his pliant review-writing fricnds. As late as his articles commissioncd in July, 1801. by Dr. Abraham Rees for The Cyclo­ paedia: or Universal Dictionary of Arts. Sciences. and literature (London: Longman, Hurst, Reese, Orme and Brown, 1802-1819 (39 volumes)), Burney's annoyance at Hawkins continued unabated. However, Spanish Renaissance polyphonists profited from Burney's peeve. Hawkins's slim eoverage of Spain gave Burney his excuse for better articles to show his own superiority. Burney begins his dense, four-column article on "History of the music of Spain" (Cyclopaedia. XXXIII [1819), folio 3K3v-3K4v) thus: "It seems as if a late musical historian had placed the Spaniards lowcr among European musicians, in the 15th and 16th centuries. than in equity they ought to have been, by imagining Morales the first practica] musician of eminenee in that country, and Salinas the only theorist that

  • Re-Examining Pedro Fernández De Castilleja Again: Was He a More Important Contemporary of Peñalosa Than We Assumed?
    nova série | new series 6/1 (2019), pp. 63-90 ISSN 2183-8410 http://rpm-ns.pt Re-examining Pedro Fernández de Castilleja Again: Was He a more Important Contemporary of Peñalosa than We Assumed? Grayson Wagstaff The Catholic University of America [email protected] Resumo Nos últimos anos foram descobertas novas informações biográficas sobre Pedro Fernández de Castilleja, assim como referências a composições suas aparentemente perdidas, que pertenceram à colecção da Catedral de Sevilha. Graças a estes novos dados, revelados por Ruiz Jiménez e outros, é possível posicionar Fernández num contexto anterior ao que antes se pensava, durante o qual terá interagido com Alba e Peñalosa e trabalhado junto com Escobar. Este conhecimento permite-nos comparar as obras de Fernández com as de Alba na variedade de estilos e técnicas que as caracterizam. Este reposicionamento num período anterior, recorrendo à documentação agora disponível sobre a actividade de Fernández em Sevilha na década de 1490, permite ainda concluir que as obras que revelam características mais conservadoras terão sido compostas muito antes do que se supunha. O uso que Fernández faz, tanto de pontos de imitação regulares, como de tipos mais variados de texturas imitativas e pseudo-imitativas, permanece ainda como um aspecto intrigante da sua longa e invulgar carreira, que abrange boa parte da actividade conhecida de Peñalosa e se prolonga até ao período da preeminência de Victoria. Neste artigo, são também explorados outros aspectos, incluindo a relação de Fernández com o conhecimento crescente da música franco-flamenga na sua época e a sua reputação como professor. O número de obras e de géneros referidos em diferentes inventários de Sevilha revelam que Fernández foi um compositor prolífico, o que em parte pode explicar a consideração em que era tido pelos responsáveis da catedral.

  • The Lute and the Polyphonist
    JOHN GRIFFITHS THE LUTE AND THE POLYPHONIST Lutes and related plucked instruments — cittems, vihuelas, guitars, and bandoras — were present in every sphere of cultured music making in the sixteenth century. Even in the church, where they are obscured by their preclusion from the performance sphere, lutes and other plucked instruments were owned and played by many of the musicians who com- posed and sang polyphonic church music. In light of our growing under- standing of the lute and lute playing, this study aims to revisit the role of the lute in the composition, dissemination and reception of vocal polyphony, as well as the manner in which plucked instruments still re- main marginalised in contemporary perceptions of renaissance music. My aim is to draw attention to the role of the lute within the milieu of vocal polyphony, insisting — as numerous other scholars have done — on the centrality of the instrument to our understanding of sixteenth-century musical life. I argue along the lines of Howard Mayer Brown that the rel- egation of the lute and its music to the periphery is to ignore some fun- damental realities.' Some 30,000 works are estimated to survive for the renaissance lute and its cognates, printed lute books were frequently is- sued in large print runs in response to a demand from urban amateurs, and instruments were produced en masse. In this latter question, my own research into the production of vihuelas in Spain indicates that perhaps in excess of a quarter of a million instruments (vihuelas and guitars) were built there in the sixteenth-century, and even this is a highly conservative estimate? Similar projections have not been made of other regions, as far • 1 HOWARD M.
