Topics covered will include his biography, particularly in regard to his professional career, and the principal genres he composed. Students will develop their skills in analyzing music of the fifteenth century, in researching historical issues concerning Josquin’s career and output, and in developing independent research projects. In order to ensure fairness and consistency for all students, academic accommodation for work representing 10% or more of the student’s overall grade in the course shall be granted only in those cases where there is documentation indicating that the student was seriously affected by illness and could not reasonably be expected to meet his/her academic responsibilities. Documentation shall be submitted, as soon as possible, to the office of the Associate Dean (Graduate Studies). Students with special learning needs or other circumstances are asked to inform the instructor as soon as possible so that necessary accommodations can be considered. The Policy on Accommodation for Illness, which is found at: http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/pdf/academic_policies/appeals/accommodation_medical.pdf Scholastic offences are taken seriously and students are directed to read the appropriate policy, specifically, the definition of what constitutes a Scholastic Offence, as found at http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/pdf/academic_policies/appeals/scholastic_discipline_g rad.pdf.

Stile Antico records for Decca. PROGRAM NOTES Our program tonight is devoted to the wonderful music of Josquin des Prez, marking 500 years since his death in 1521. Josquin was unquestionably a star in his own time: no lesser figure than Martin Luther praised him as “the master of the notes,” while for the theorist Glarean, “no one has more effectively expressed the passions of the soul in music…his talent is beyond description.” So what is it about Josquin that exerted such a spell on the generations that followed—and which still speaks so eloquently to us today? Much about Josquin’s biography and career remains shadowy: it isn’t always possible to pin down where he was working, and—with a few exceptions—the chronology of his works can only be attempted on stylistic grounds.

  • Josquin Des Prez
    (LEMS 8081, formerly released as LLST 7265) Josquin Des Prez Missa Gaudeamus Dominus regnavit In exitu Israel Nymphes des bois Capella Cordina Alejandro Planchart, director In 1502 the Venetian printer Ottaviano Petrucci, who had issued the previous year the first collection of part-music ever printed (the Harmonice musices odhecaton), published his first book of Masses; the Misse Josquin. The book contained five Masses: L’Homme armé super voces musicales; La, sol, fa, re, mi; Gaudeamus; Fortuna desperata; and L’Homme armé sexti toni. 1 The choice of Josquin for such a volume was an obvious one, for the composer was then at the very height of his fame and influence. Indeed, although Petrucci eventually brought out books of Masses by other composers, only Josquin merited three complete prints from him (Book II, 1505; Book III, 1514), and only the Josquin Mass books were reprinted (Book I in 1516, Book II in 1515). Thus, virtually all the extant authentic Masses of Josquin were published by Petrucci. The exceptions are the Missa Pange lingua, probably composed after 1516, and the Missa Allez regretz, an inferior work that may well be spurious. A third Mass attributed to Josquin in some sources, the Missa Da pacem, has been shown to be the work of a minor composer, Noel Bauldweyn. In 1502, however, neither Petrucci nor Josquin (who most likely had a say in the selection of pieces) could have known that there would be eventually three complete books of Josquin’s Masses from the Venetian’s press, and the choice of pieces reflects a great deal of care.

  • Josquin Des Prez Discography
    Josquin des Prez Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of Josquin des Prez (Josquin Lebloitte dit des Prez, formerly cited as Josquin Desprez or Josquin des Près and alphabetized under D, J or P), compiled by Jerome F. Weber, adopts the format of the Du Fay discography previously posted on this website. It may be noted that at least three book titles since 2000 have named him simply “Josquin,” bypassing the spelling problem. Acknowledgment is due to Pierre-F. Roberge and Todd McComb for an exhaustive list of records containing Josquin’s music in www.medieval.org/emfaq. It incorporates listings from the work of Sydney Robinson Charles in Josquin des Prez: A Guide to Research (Garland Composer Resource Manuals, 1983) and Peter Urquhart in The Josquin Companion (ed. Richard Sherr, Oxford, 2000), which continued where Charles left off. The last two lists each included a title index. This work has also used the following publications already incorporated in the three cited discographies. The 78rpm and early LP eras were covered in discographic format by The Gramophone Shop Encyclopedia of Recorded Music (three editions, 1936, 1942, 1948) and The World’s Encyclopaedia of Recorded Music (three volumes, 1952, 1953, 1957). James Coover and Richard Colvig compiled Medieval and Renaissance Music on Long-Playing Records in two volumes (1964 and 1973), and Trevor Croucher compiled Early Music Discography from Plainsong to the Sons of Bach (Oryx Press, 1981). The Index to Record Reviews compiled by Kurtz Myers (G. K. Hall, 1978) provided useful information. Michael Gray’s classical-discography.org has furnished many details.

    Ockeghem’s Missa Mi-mi as Hypophrygian Exemplar in Fifteenth-Century Vocal Polyphony Master’s Thesis Presented To The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Department of Music Seth Coluzzi, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Fine Arts in Musicology by Ian Lorenz May 2014 Copyright by Ian Lorenz © 2014 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Chafe and Dr. Keiler for their helping me to grow as a musicologist, and I would especially like to thank my advisor Dr. Seth Coluzzi for all the time and effort that he has given me on mode and modal theory. I would also like to thank my friends and family for all their love and support throughout this process. iii ABSTRACT Ockeghem’s Missa Mi-mi as Hypophrygian Exemplar in Fifteenth-Century Vocal Polyphony A thesis presented to the Music Department Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Ian Lorenz Ockeghem’s Missa Mi-mi has intrigued and puzzled scholars for many centuries after its creation. A great amount of research has been dedicated to the ambiguous title ascribed to the mass and what it may have represented during the latter part of the fifteenth century. One area that has not been covered in such detail is that the mass itself is exemplary through the use of the Hypophrygian mode, a mode that had been hardly used in polyphony throughout the fifteenth century. This study, then, critically examines the secular output of contemporary foremost composers Guillaume Dufay, Gilles Binchois, Antoine Busnois, Johannes Ockeghem, and Johannes Tinctoris in order to establish a stylistic paradigm of the Phrygian modes.

Marco Borggreve) The Golden Renaissance: Josquin des Prez PROGRAMME NOTES by Sarah Maxted For such a significant composer, there is remarkably little known about the life of Josquin des Prez. From his year of birth (the scholarly consensus is c. 1450/55), to his nationality (probably French, but he might have been born in Hainaut in modern-day Belgium), to his surname (presented in legal documents as Lebloitte or des Prez but also rendered variously in French, Italianate and Latin forms), Josquin’s origins remain enigmatic. What is certain, however, is that he became a hugely influential musician and central figure in the Franco-Flemish school of polyphonic vocal music. One reliably recorded detail is the date of Josquin’s death on 27 August 1521. In this concert Stile Antico bring together some of Josquin’s most sublime works, commemorating 500 years since the composer’s death and celebrating the release of their magnificent new CD The Golden Renaissance: Josquin Josquin des Prez des Prez.

W. NORTON AND COMPANY Ƌ ƋĐƋ W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program—trade books and college texts— were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W.
