Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600
Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 By Leon Chisholm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Massimo Mazzotti Summer 2015 Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 Copyright 2015 by Leon Chisholm Abstract Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 by Leon Chisholm Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Keyboard instruments are ubiquitous in the history of European music. Despite the centrality of keyboards to everyday music making, their influence over the ways in which musicians have conceptualized music and, consequently, the music that they have created has received little attention. This dissertation explores how keyboard playing fits into revolutionary developments in music around 1600 – a period which roughly coincided with the emergence of the keyboard as the multipurpose instrument that has served musicians ever since. During the sixteenth century, keyboard playing became an increasingly common mode of experiencing polyphonic music, challenging the longstanding status of ensemble singing as the paradigmatic vehicle for the art of counterpoint – and ultimately replacing it in the eighteenth century. The competing paradigms differed radically: whereas ensemble singing comprised a group of musicians using their bodies as instruments, keyboard playing involved a lone musician operating a machine with her hands. -

Merriweather, conductor About This Virtual Concert By Barbara Pickhardt The Fauré Requiem Reimagined for a Pandemic This virtual performance of the Fauré Requiem grew out of the need to prepare a concert while maintaining social distancing. We would surely have preferred to blend our voices as we always have, in a live performance. But the pandemic opened the door to a new and different opportunity. As we saw the coronavirus wreak havoc around the world, it seemed natural to reach out to our friends in other locales and include them in this program. In our reimagined version of the Fauré Requiem, Ars Choralis is joined, from Belgium, by the Brussels Choral Society, the Magna Graecia Flute Choir of Calabria, Italy, the Dessoff Choirs from New York City, and, from New York, instrumentalists from the Albany area, New York City and the Hudson Valley. -

Dear Customer, As summer gives way to autumn (for those of us in the northern hemisphere at least), the record labels start rolling out their big guns in the run-up to the festive season. This year is no exception, with some notable high-profile issues: the complete Tchaikovsky Project from the Czech Philharmonic under Semyon Bychkov, and Richard Strauss tone poems from Chailly in Lucerne (both on Decca); the Beethoven Piano Concertos from Jan Lisiecki, and Mozart Piano Trios from Barenboim (both on DG). The independent labels, too, have some particularly strong releases this month, with Chandos discs including Bartók's Bluebeard’s Castle from Edward Gardner in Bergen, and the keenly awaited second volume of British tone poems under Rumon Gamba. Meanwhile Hyperion bring out another volume (no.79!) of their Romantic Piano Concerto series, more Machaut from the wonderful Orlando Consort (see our cover picture), and Brahms songs from soprano Harriet Burns. Another Hyperion Brahms release features as our 'Disc of the Month': the Violin Sonatas in a superb new recording from star team Alina Ibragimova and Cédric Tiberghien (see below). -
Pietro Aaron on Musica Plana: a Translation and Commentary on Book I of the Libri Tres De Institutione Harmonica (1516)
Pietro Aaron on musica plana: A Translation and Commentary on Book I of the Libri tres de institutione harmonica (1516) Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Joseph Bester, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Charles Atkinson Burdette Green Copyright by Matthew Joseph Bester 2013 Abstract Historians of music theory long have recognized the importance of the sixteenth- century Florentine theorist Pietro Aaron for his influential vernacular treatises on practical matters concerning polyphony, most notably his Toscanello in musica (Venice, 1523) and his Trattato della natura et cognitione de tutti gli tuoni di canto figurato (Venice, 1525). Less often discussed is Aaron’s treatment of plainsong, the most complete statement of which occurs in the opening book of his first published treatise, the Libri tres de institutione harmonica (Bologna, 1516). The present dissertation aims to assess and contextualize Aaron’s perspective on the subject with a translation and commentary on the first book of the De institutione harmonica. The extensive commentary endeavors to situate Aaron’s treatment of plainsong more concretely within the history of music theory, with particular focus on some of the most prominent treatises that were circulating in the decades prior to the publication of the De institutione harmonica. This includes works by such well-known theorists as Marchetto da Padova, Johannes Tinctoris, and Franchinus Gaffurius, but equally significant are certain lesser-known practical works on the topic of plainsong from around the turn of the century, some of which are in the vernacular Italian, including Bonaventura da Brescia’s Breviloquium musicale (1497), the anonymous Compendium musices (1499), and the anonymous Quaestiones et solutiones (c.1500). -
Artes 21-22.Docx
DOI: 10.2478/ajm-2020-0004 Artes. Journal of Musicology Constantin Silvestri, the problematic musician. New press documents ALEX VASILIU, PhD “George Enescu” National University of Arts ROMANIA∗ Abstract: Constantin Silvestri was a man, an artist who reached the peaks of glory as well as the depths of despair. He was a composer whose modern visions were too complex for his peers to undestand and accept, but which nevertheless stood the test of time. He was an improvisational pianist with amazing technique and inventive skills, and was obsessed with the score in the best sense of the word. He was a musician well liked and supported by George Enescu and Mihail Jora. He was a conductor whose interpretations of any opus, particularly Romantic, captivate from the very first notes; the movements of the baton, the expression of his face, even one single look successfully brought to life the oeuvres of various composers, endowing them with expressiveness, suppleness and a modern character that few other composers have ever managed to achieve. Regarded as a very promising conductor, a favourite with the audiences, wanted by the orchestras in Bucharest in the hope of creating new repertoires, Constantin Silvestri was nevertheless quite the problematic musician for the Romanian press. Newly researched documents reveal fragments from this musician’s life as well as the features of a particular time period in the modern history of Romanian music. Keywords: Romanian press; the years 1950; socialist realism. 1. Introduction The present study is not necessarily occasioned by the 50th anniversary of Constantin Silvestri’s death (23rd February 1969). -
A Case Study in Hexachordal Solmization As a Guide to Musica Recta and Musica Ficta in Fifteenth-Century Vocal Music
From the Singer's Point of View: A Case Study in Hexachordal Solmization as a Guide to Musica Recta and Musica Ficta in Fifteenth-Century Vocal Music By Daniel Zager A treatise by the sixteenth-century Papal musician Ghiselin Danckerts preserves the details of an interesting controversy among some professional singers in Rome. Presuppositions concerning modal purity together with cer tain ambiguities of unspecified accidentals in a Lamentation setting by the Spanish composer Juan Escribano combined to provide these performers with some difficulties in the matter of the pitches to be, sung. In his discus sion of this episode, Lewis Lockwood observes that "many performers of the time must have found the problem as difficult as we do today."! Our difficul ties in such questions of pitch, and in the concomitant consideration of edito rial accidentals, derive from at least two considerations. First, modern editors have not always made a consistent conceptual dis tinction between musica ficta and musica recta. The term musica ficta has fre quently been used incorrectly to embrace all of the editorial accidentals added to modern scores of Renaissance music. In fact, many of these editori al accidentals, specifically many Bhs, may be explained and should be under stood in terms of the standard system of musica recta as delineated in the gamut, the theoretical framework by which the fifteenth-century composer and singer defined musical space! Musicaficta, on the other hand, refers only to pitches outside of the gamut. The distinction is crucial, for while the fif teenth-century singer, and, by implication, his modern counterpart, would normally avoid entering ficta hexachords unless necessary, there was simply no reason to avoid the Bhs of musica recta. -
My Name Is Cucu Alexandru-Nicu, but You Can Call Me Alex. I'm Almost 17
Introducing myself Hello ! My name is Cucu Alexandru-Nicu, but you can call me Alex. I’m almost 17 and I live in Bacau, a beautiful town with beautiful people. I live with my family in a house situated in a neighborhood called Serbanesti. I study at National College ―Vasile Alecsandri‖ which, in my opinion, is the best highschool in town. As you can see I love sports, all kind of sports. But mainly motor- sports, hunting, fishing and boxing are my favorite. Once a year my father and I take part in a Enduro European Championship. If you want to know the best place to fish or hunt you can ask me and I’ll say that Danube Delta is the perfect place. As my uncle owns a pension, I spend almost 4 months per year there. My family consists of my father (Nicu), my mother (Mihaela) and my brother (Radu). I can say that we are very close and my father is one of my best friends. Bacău Bacău is the main city in Bacău County, Romania. It covers a land surface of 43 km², and, as of January 1, 2009, has an estimated population of 177,087. The city is situated in the historical region of Moldavia, at the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, and on the Bistriţa River (which meets the Siret River about 8 km (5.0 mi) to the south of Bacău). The Ghimeş Pass links Bacău to Transylvania. It has a public university and several colleges. Two major Romanian poets, George Bacovia and Vasile Alecsandri were born here. -
Concerning the Ontological Status of the Notated Musical Work in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries
Concerning the Ontological Status of the Notated Musical Work in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries Leeman L. Perkins In her detailed and imaginative study of the concept of the musical work, The Imag;inary Museum of Musical Works (1992), Lydia Goehr has made the claim that, prompted by "changes in aesthetic theory, society, and poli tics," eighteenth century musicians began "to think about music in new terms and to produce music in new ways," to conceive of their art, there fore, not just as music per se, but in terms of works. Although she allows that her view "might be judged controversial" (115), she asserts that only at the end of the 1700s did the concept of a work begin "to serve musical practice in its regulative capacity," and that musicians did "not think about music in terms of works" before 1800 (v). In making her argument, she pauses briefly to consider the Latin term for work, opus, as used by the theorist and pedagogue, Nicolaus Listenius, in his Musica of 1537. She acknowledges, in doing so, that scholars in the field of music-especially those working in the German tradition-have long regarded Listenius's opening chapter as an indication that, by the sixteenth century, musical compositions were regarded as works in much the same way as paintings, statuary, or literature. She cites, for example, the monographs devoted to the question of "musical works of art" by Walter Wiora (1983) and Wilhelm Seidel (1987). She concludes, however, that their arguments do not stand up to critical scrutiny. There can be little doubt, surely, that the work-concept was the focus of a good deal of philosophical dispute and aesthetic inquiry in the course of the nineteenth century. -
