Finding Their Voice: Women Musicians of Baroque Italy Faith Poynor emale musicians began to achieve greater freedom and indepen- dence from men during the Baroque period, and their music and Fcreative talent consequently began to flourish. Due to the rise in popularity of female vocal ensembles that resulted after the establishment of the con- certo delle donne in 1580, women composers in early modern Italy gained greater access to musical training previously only available to men or nuns. As seen by the works of composers and singers such as Francesca Caccini and Barbara Strozzi, this led to an unprecedented increase in women’s mu- sical productivity, particularly in vocal music. The rise of female vocal ensembles in the early Baroque period was a pivotal moment in women’s music history, as women finally achieved wide- spread recognition for their talents as musicians.

  • Rachel Rubin C'17, ” Barbara Strozzi's Feminine Influence on the Cantata
    Barbara Strozzi’s Feminine Influence on the Cantata in 17th-Century Venice Rachel Rubin (CLA 2017) Abstract In this paper, I will be discussing how Venetian composer Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677) achieved success in the seventeenth century through publication. She is recognized today as one of the earliest composers to write and publish cantatas in such high quantities, though her accomplishments were not met without difficulty. Attaining recognition in the male-dominated musical culture of the Baroque era was a massive undertaking for a woman and required Strozzi to manipulate resources granted to her by her father’s social status. However, it was her own relentless ambition that ultimately propelled her to fame. As such, she paved the way for female composers and continues to inspire with her legacy. Analysis of her piece, Lagrime mie from Diporti di Euterpe, published in 1659, reveals a highly refined use of expressive techniques to convey the powers of song and sorrow. Her affinity for emotional expression combined with her sophisticated understanding of the human voice create a powerful yet sensitive tone in this piece. Given the physical evidence, Strozzi’s success through publication is undeniable, though it was her bold pursuit for recognition that allowed her to break gender stereotypes, making her feats all the more impressive. 187 Introduction Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677) was both a highly praised composer and vocal performer of the seventeenth century. She made significant contributions to Venetian arias and ariettas but is most widely recognized as one of the earliest composers, male or female, to write cantatas in such high numbers (Timms).

  • A Singer's Guide to Performing Two Baroque Cantatas: Barbara
    A Singer’s Guide to Performing Two Baroque Cantatas: Barbara Strozzi’s L’Astratto, Op. 8, No. 4, and Elisabeth-Claude Jacquet de La Guerre’s Le Sommeil d’Ulisse A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music May 2012 by Youngmi Kim BM, Ewha Womans University, 2000 MM, University of Cincinnati, 2003 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD ABSTRACT The secular cantata was one of the most popular genres in vocal chamber music during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Similar to opera in its musical style and dramatic narrative, the Baroque cantata developed in Italy during the seventeenth century, changing from a multi-sectional movement with quick alternations between recitative, arioso, and aria to a multi-movement piece with several pairs of recitatives and da capo arias by the 1680s. This study is a performer’s guide to Barbara Strozzi’s L’Astratto (1664), Op. 8, No. 4 and Elizabeth-Claude Jacquet de La Guerre’s Le Sommeil d’Ulisse (1715). A comparison of two cantatas by women composers, one from mid-seventeenth-century Italy and the other from early eighteenth century France, allows for a study of different forms, singing styles, ornamentation, instrumentation, and the relationship between text and music in the genre’s development over a half-century. This document aids singers in programming this genre and discovering the music of two of the cantata’s most gifted composers.

  • Chapter 8: Music Travels: Trends in Italy, Germany, France, and England
    Chapter 8: Music Travels: Trends in Italy, Germany, France, and England I. Introduction A. During the seventeenth century, instrumental music rose in prominence and respect. B. Different political climates in Italy, France, Germany, and England resulted in national musical styles. II. Instrumental Music A. Some Organists: Frescobaldi, Sweelinck, and Others 1. Formal plans that did not depend on a text allowed instrumental music to expand to substantial compositions. 2. Written examples demonstrated what a virtuoso performer could do in improvisation. a. The music of the organist at St. Peter’s, Rome, Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583– 1643) is a good example of how this works. 1) He was a flamboyant composer whose music illustrates that early seventeenth-century musicians performed in an almost excessively impressive style. 2) Twelve of his sixteen published volumes are of instrumental music. 3) Two genres associated with him are the toccata and partite. a) Toccatas turn the act of playing into a form of theater, thereby linking them to current trends in vocal music. b) Frescobaldi’s toccatas are sectional and can be ended where need be. 4) His partite, or variations, were inventive works that evince years of improvisation. a) They include examples of the passacaglia and ciaccona. b. Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck (1562–1621), a Dutch organist, was another famous composer, chiefly known for improvisation. 1) He published old-fashioned vocal music but also performed in a modern style on the keyboard. 2) English Catholic composers who moved to the Netherlands introduced Sweelinck to the music of the virginalists (English keyboard composers), including Byrd. B. Lutheran Adaptations: The Chorale Partita and Chorale Concerto 1.
