    ACET Junior Academies’ Scheme of Work for music Year 5 Unit 1.1: A Musical Masque About this unit: This unit of work is linked to the History scheme of work HT 1.1 Post 1066 Study: The Tudors. It is a starting point for exploration into Tudor music. In it children will begin to learn about Tudor Dance music, in particular the Pavan as a popular Tudor dance. Children will identify its characteristic musical features and rhythms before attempting to dance the Pavan and performing their own Pavan melody over a drone accompaniment. Children will then move on to learn about traditional Tudor musical instruments before exploring Tudor songs and madrigal-style songs with a ‘fa, la, la, la’ refrain. Where they will compose their own lyrics to a madrigal melody. Fanfares are explored briefly before children work towards putting on a Tudor style banquet/concert combining elements of all the musical learning in to a class performance. Unit structure National Curriculum objectives: This unit is structured around six sequential music enquiries: 1. What is a Pavan? Links to previous and future National Curriculum 2. How do we perform a Pavan? units/objectives 3. What do Tudor instruments sound like? KS2 4. What is a Madrigal? ● Listen with attention to detail and recall sound with 5.

ZIMMERMAN THE tercentenary of Purcell's birth has afforded an excellent oppor- tunity to summarize the known facts about the so-called 'Trumpet Voluntary' which we now know was composed by his younger contemporary Jeremiah Clarke. Year by year the evidence for Clarke's authorship grows stronger, while Purcell's claim recedes. There is no authentic evidence for the Purcellian attribution, whereas a firm ascription to Clarke appears in at least four early sources; there are also several anonymous sources. The most important of the printed sources is 'A Choice Collection of Ayres for the Harpsichord or Spinett' (London, 1700), in which the piece appears on page 13 as 'The Prince of Denmark's March by Mr Clarke' (see the reproduction opposite).

  • From Purcell to Wardour Street: a Brief Account of Music Manuscripts from the Library of Vincent Novello Now in the British Library
    FROM PURCELL TO WARDOUR STREET: A BRIEF ACCOUNT OF MUSIC MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE LIBRARY OF VINCENT NOVELLO NOW IN THE BRITISH LIBRARY CHRIS BANKS Good music at all out of the common line was either enormously dear or in manuscript, and had to be copied at the British Museum. The publications of the house of Novello and its imitators have altered all this, and have banished to the shelf a mass of copies of old Italian and old English music made during hundreds of delightful half-hours snatched from the day's work in the old reading room in Montague Place, long before the building of Panizzi's dome. Not that this labour was useless. On the contrary, it was fraught with good. The searching for the works, the balancing of one service, motett, madrigal, or cantata against another, the eager poring over the manuscript volumes of Burney's Extracts, Tudway, or Needler's Collection, forced one involuntarily into the acquisition of much knowledge. Further, this copying taught one clefs and figured bass; it obliged one to play from score or to write one's own accompaniment - in fact, gave one knowledge against one's will for which the modern student has little or no occasion. George Grove is describing here^ what Novello and others needed to do in order to initiate the process of publishing cheap editions. The publishing activities alone of Vincent Novello are enough to establish his energetic passion for making music available to a wider public. ^ In 1986 and 1987 Novello and Company presented to the British Library a substantial collection of scores written or collected by Novello, which had remained in the possession of the company, perhaps since its foundation.

  • Jeremiah Clarke
    Jeremiah Clarke Jeremiah Clarke, was born in 1670, and he is considered a composer in the Baroque tradition. The first thing I discovered in researching him is that his name is misspelled in our Hymnal: it lacks the final “e” on Clarke, that all other sources show. You can imagine how that made researching him difficult at first. He lived a fairly short life, and there is not a lot to say about him, so let’s get right into singing one of his hymns. Hymn 142 is described in the Hymnal Notes as “a fluent, graceful tune.” Hymn 142 – 1st & 4th According to the Hymnal Notes, “Clark[e] was almoner and master of the choristers at St. Paul’s Cathedral, and then organist.” Another source clarified that he was organist at St. Paul’s from 1699 until his death. So what’s an “almoner”? It’s a church officer whose job is to distribute alms to the poor or, more generally, to represent the church in meeting the needs of the poor. Hymn 328 – all Clarke is best remembered for a piece commonly called the “Trumpet Voluntary.” For nearly a century, it was attributed to Henry Purcell. Then starting in the 1940s the realization spread that it was composed by Clarke under the title, “The Prince of Denmark's March.” Clarke's piece is a popular choice for wedding music, and has been used in royal weddings, including that of Prince Charles and Princess Diana in 1981. Would you like to hear some of it? Interestingly this piece, like most of Clarke’s work was originally composed for the harpsichord.
