  • Introduction
    Copyright © Thomas Braatz, 20071 Introduction This paper proposes to trace the origin and rather quick demise of the Andreas Stübel Theory, a theory which purportedly attempted to designate a librettist who supplied Johann Sebastian Bach with texts and worked with him when the latter composed the greater portion of the 2nd ‘chorale-cantata’ cycle in Leipzig from 1724 to early 1725. It was Hans- Joachim Schulze who first proposed this theory in 1998 after which it encountered a mixed reception with Christoph Wolff lending it some support in his Bach biography2 and in his notes for the Koopman Bach-Cantata recording series3, but with Martin Geck4 viewing it rather less enthusiastically as a theory that resembled a ball thrown onto the roulette wheel and having the same chance of winning a jackpot. 1 This document may be freely copied and distributed providing that distribution is made in full and the author’s copyright notice is retained. 2 Christoph Wolff, Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician (Norton, 2000), (first published as a paperback in 2001), p. 278. 3 Christoph Wolff, ‘The Leipzig church cantatas: the chorale cantata cycle (II:1724-1725)’ in The Complete Cantatas volumes 10 and 11 as recorded by Ton Koopman and published by Erato Disques (Paris, France, 2001). 4 Martin Geck, Bach: Leben und Werk, (Hamburg, 2000), p. 400. 1 Andreas Stübel Andreas Stübel (also known as Stiefel = ‘boot’) was born as the son of an innkeeper in Dresden on December 15, 1653. In Dresden he first attended the Latin School located there. Then, in 1668, he attended the Prince’s School (“Fürstenschule”) in Meißen.

  • The Treatment of the Chorale Wie Scan Leuchtet Der Iorgenstern in Organ Compositions from the Seven Teenth Century to the Twentieth Century
    379 THE TREATMENT OF THE CHORALE WIE SCAN LEUCHTET DER IORGENSTERN IN ORGAN COMPOSITIONS FROM THE SEVEN TEENTH CENTURY TO THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Paul Winston Renick, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1961 PREFACE The chorale Wie schn iihtet derMorgenstern was popular from its very outset in 1589. That it has retained its popularity down to the present day is evident by its continually appearing in hymnbooks and being used as a cantus in organ compositions as well as forming the basis for other media of musical composition. The treatment of organ compositions based on this single chorale not only exemplifies the curiously novel attraction that this tune has held for composers, but also supplies a common denominator by which the history of the organ chorale can be generally stated. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE . * . * . * . * * * . * .

  • JS Bach's Chorales
    2017 Patricia Carpenter Emerging Scholar Award J. S. Bach’s Chorales: Reconstructing Eighteenth-Century German Figured-Bass Pedagogy in Light of a New Source Derek Remeš In a recent study by Robin A. Leaver, the Sibley Choralbuch (Rochester, NY) was re-identified as likely stemming from J. S. Bach’s students in Dresden from around 1730–40 (2016). The manuscript contains 227 figured-bass chorales—melodies with single figured basses—and thus matches the first part of C. P. E. Bach’s description of his father’s teaching method, where students first received a figured-bass chorale and added two inner voices. Later, students composed their own basses and figures. Here, the plural “basses” is significant, because several “multiple-bass” chorale sources have also come to light in recent years, many stemming from J. S. Bach’s students, Kittel and Kirnberger, who discuss this technique in their treatises. These sources suggest that a little-known, keyboard chorale tradition also played an important role in Bach’s pedagogy. The present article attempts to reconstruct this pedagogical process using contemporaneous German sources. For as much as we admire J. S. Bach’s music, we know relatively little about how he taught composition. One thing we do know is that Bach began instruction with figured- bass chorales. Bach’s chorale harmonizations are still part of the curriculum today, but they are usually used to teach harmonic analysis, not composition—that is, we use the same materials (chorale melodies), but to different ends. Thus, developing a clearer understanding of Bach’s pedagogical methods can inform modern-day pedagogy.

  • A Transformational Method for Chorale Generation
    A Transformational Method for Chorale Generation Raymond Whorley1 and Darrell Conklin1,2 1 Department of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, San Sebasti´an, Spain 2 IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Science, Bilbao, Spain [email protected],[email protected] Abstract. Music sampled from a statistical model tends to lack long- term structure. This problem can be ameliorated by transforming an existing piece of music into a new one, such that the structure of the original is retained. A method for transforming Bach chorales is pre- sented here. Sampling is constrained by chord symbols, phrase boundary information, soprano note lengths and key regions from the original mu- sic. Two corpora are used: one of hymn tune harmonisations by various composers, and the other of chorale melody harmonisations by J. S. Bach. 1 Introduction A problem with Markov models for music generation is that music sampled from a model tends to lack long-term structure; that is, the output can seem to wander due to the limited context used. The solution proposed here is to transform an existing piece of music such that the new piece is related to the original in some abstract way. To generate a well-structured four-part harmonic texture, hopefully including a coherent and novel melody, a structural template is created from a chorale melody harmonisation by J. S. Bach. Multiple pieces are then generated in line with the template with the aim of finding low cross- entropy (negative mean log probability) solutions, as these tend to be in better compliance with generally agreed rules of harmony [1].
