Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, "Polonaise" . 104 ix CHAPTER I INTRODUCT ION The purpose of this study is to trace the development of the major seventh chord from the earliest recorded music through the German School of composition up to the time of Johann Sebastian Bach. The term "major seventh chord" 1 is used to denote the four-tone chord comprised of a major triad plus a tone which is a major seventh above the root. In major keys this chord may be built on the tonic and sub- dominant degrees of the scale without alterations, and in the "natural" minor on the mediant and the submediant. The full, or structural, name "major-major seventh chord"--used in the present thesis only when it is necessary to distin- guish it from other seventh chords with major sevenths-- arises from the fact that the triad (1, , 5) is major and the interval between the root and the seventh is major. An example f ollows: 'Allen Irvine McHose, The C ontrauntal Harmonic Tech- nique of the Eihteenth Centu p. 142. 1 2 Other seventh chords2 referred to in this thesis are as follows: Structural Name Usually Called major-minor seventh major-minor seventh chord chord minor-minor seventh minor seventh chord chor d diminished-minor half -d imin ished seventh chord seventh chord diminished-d iminished diminished seventh seventh chord chord minor-major seventh minor-ma jor seventh chord chord augmented-major seventh augmented-ma jor chordI seventh chord 2Ibid*.,pp. 142-143. Bach's music marks the height of harmonic achievement up to and including the first half of the eighteenth century (end of the Baroque period) , and therefore, provides a convenient terminating point for research in early uses of this chord. 6ince the composers of the German School preceding Bach have been thought to have been a strong influence upon Bach's harmonic treatment, their works have been selected as a basis of this investigation. Although (with one exception) this study does not show that composers before 1750 used the major seventh chord other than accidentally, i.e., as a result of non-harmonic tones, Bach's harmony includes it as part of the standard harmonic equipment (Figures 2, 31, 52, 53, 54, 71, 72, and 99). First, the use of the major seventh chord in connection with the Phrygian cadence is traced from an example (Fig- ure 8) from a piece by Johannes Martini, dated 1470, to a chorale prelude by Johann Sebastian Bach (Figure 31). Second, the use of the major seventh chord in connec- tion with the authentic cadence is traced from an example (Figure 36) by Boumgartner, dated circa 1460, to a Bach chorale (Figure 54). Third, the use of the major seventh chord as a result of two frequently used contrapuntal devices is traced. These devices are the sequence and the suspension chain, and the discussion of their use is of the period from circa 1524 (Johannes 6chrem) to circa 1750 (Figures 55 and 78). Nal 4 Fourth, those usages of the chord which do not conform to the three first patterns are shown as they occurred historically. In this group the examples range all the way from slight variants of the other three types of progres- sions to extreme deviations. A few of these usages were employed by more than one composer, but for the most part the examples are isolated instances rather than treatments which recur. The works from which portions are reproduced are in- tended to represent a cross-section of the compositions and composers of the early German School.

  • Navigating, Coping & Cashing In
    The RECORDING Navigating, Coping & Cashing In Maze November 2013 Introduction Trying to get a handle on where the recording business is headed is a little like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall. No matter what side of the business you may be on— producing, selling, distributing, even buying recordings— there is no longer a “standard operating procedure.” Hence the title of this Special Report, designed as a guide to the abundance of recording and distribution options that seem to be cropping up almost daily thanks to technology’s relentless march forward. And as each new delivery CONTENTS option takes hold—CD, download, streaming, app, flash drive, you name it—it exponentionally accelerates the next. 2 Introduction At the other end of the spectrum sits the artist, overwhelmed with choices: 4 The Distribution Maze: anybody can (and does) make a recording these days, but if an artist is not signed Bring a Compass: Part I with a record label, or doesn’t have the resources to make a vanity recording, is there still a way? As Phil Sommerich points out in his excellent overview of “The 8 The Distribution Maze: Distribution Maze,” Part I and Part II, yes, there is a way, or rather, ways. But which Bring a Compass: Part II one is the right one? Sommerich lets us in on a few of the major players, explains 11 Five Minutes, Five Questions how they each work, and the advantages and disadvantages of each. with Three Top Label Execs In “The Musical America Recording Surveys,” we confirmed that our readers are both consumers and makers of recordings.

Bach The three chorales with figured bass included here are from the Gesangbuch published by Georg Christian Schemelli in 1736. The 69 pieces attributed to Bach in the mammoth Gesangbuch (which contains no fewer than 950 pieces!) are marked by quiet and pious sentiments, unobtrusive and effortless harmonies. The aria “Bist du bei mir” (BWV 508) was part of Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel's opera Diomedes, oder die triumphierende Unschuld that was performed in Bayreuth on November 16, 1718. The opera score is lost. The aria had been part of the Berlin Singakademie music library and was considered lost in the Second World War, until it was rediscovered in 2000 in the Kiev Conservatory. The continuo part of BWV 508 is more agitated and continuous in its voice leading than the Stölzel aria; it is uncertain who provided it, as the entry in the Notebook is by Anna Magdalena Bach herself. Claudio Monteverdi Claudio Monteverdi, the oldest of five children, was born in Cremona, where he was part of the cathedral choir and later studied at the university.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfîlming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the Him along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
