His Vigilate takes inspiration from the Italian madrigal traditions, resulting in colouring that is vivid, detailed and full of lulling suspensions. This piece is a beautiful example of Byrd’s compositional individuality and astonishingly consistent level of inspiration. Canite tuba Francisco Guerrero Francisco Guerrero was a Spanish Catholic priest and talented young composer of the Renaissance period. At age 17, Guerrero was appointed Maestro de Capilla at Jaen Cathedral, and a few years later he accepted a prestigious position in Seville. He established an exceptional reputation as a singer and composer even before his thirtieth birthday, with his music known for its powerful range of moods, from joy to despair, longing, elation and devotional stillness.

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.

  • Music As Holy Preaching
    THE PARISH OF ST. VINCENT FERRER AND ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA MUSIC AS HOLY PREACHING MUSIC LIST of the SCHOLA CANTORUM SPRING 2021 Te Very Reverend Walter C. Wagner, O.P., Pastor James D. Wetzel, Director of Music and Organist INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC IN THE PARISH Welcome to the Parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St. Catherine of Siena in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, served by the Dominican Friars of the Province of St. Joseph. Te Solemn Mass is at the heart of the Parish’s liturgical and musical life and is the richest expression of the Church’s Holy Sacrifce. As such, it is celebrated with full ceremonial on Sundays at 12 Noon at St. Vincent Ferrer, on major feast days, and to mark important occasions in the community. Te Schola Cantorum, the Parish’s professional choir, sings for every Solemn Mass. Schola Cantorum is the ofcial term used by the Catholic Church to denote a liturgical choir and means ‘school of singing.’ Te Schola chants the Propers of the Mass—the Entrance, Ofertory, and Communion Antiphons, the Responsorium (the Dominican version of the ‘Gradual’), and the Alleluia––according to the Dominican Graduale, the chant book particular to the Order of Preachers. Ofertory and Communion motets follow their respective Antiphons, and in privileged seasons and on feastdays a choral Mass Ordinary is ofered. Tis broad range of repertoire surveys the very best in our treasured Catholic musical patrimony. Te celebrant’s orations, Credo, Preface, and Pater noster are also sung at the Solemn Mass. Five Sung Masses with a cantor are ofered in the Parish each weekend: at 6 PM on Saturday and at 9:30 AM and 6 PM on Sunday at St.

  • Central European Connections of Six Manuscript Organ Tablature Books of the Reformation Era from the Region of Zips (Szepes, Spiš)*
    Central European Connections of Six Manuscript Organ Tablature Books of the Reformation Era from the Region of Zips (Szepes, Spiš)* Marta HULKOVÁ Comenius University, Faculty of Arts, Bratislava Gondova 2, SK-81499 Bratislava, Slovakia E-mail: [email protected] (Received: September 2014; accepted: December 2014) Abstract: Tablature notations that developed in the sixteenth century in the field of secular European instrumental music had an impact also on the dissemination of purely vocal and vocal-instrumental church music. In this function, the so-called new German organ tablature notation (also known as Ammerbach’s notation) became the most prominent, enabling organists to produce intabulations from the vocal and vocal-instrumental parts of sacred compositions. On the choir of the Lutheran church in Levoča, as parts of the Leutschau/Lőcse/Levoča Music Collection, six tablature books written in Ammerbach’s notation have been preserved. They are associated with Johann Plotz, Ján Šimbracký, and Samuel Marckfelner, local organists active in Zips during the seventeenth century. The tablature books contain a repertoire which shows that the scribes had a good knowledge of contemporaneous Protestant church music performed in Central Europe, as well as works by Renaissance masters active in Catholic environment during the second half of the sixteenth century. The books contain intabulations of the works by local seventeenth-century musicians, as well as several pieces by Jacob Regnart, Matthäus von Löwenstern, Fabianus Ripanus, etc. The tablatures are often the only usable source for the reconstruction of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century polyphonic compositions transmitted incompletely. Keywords: organ tablature books, Leutschau/Lőcse/Levoča Music Collection, Plotz, Šimbracký, Marckfelner Introduction Tablature notations that developed in the sixteenth century in the field of secular European instrumental music had an impact also on the dissemination of purely Studia Musicologica 56/1, 2015, pp.

  • The Articulation of Cultural Identity Through Psalm Motets, Augsburg 1540–1585
    THE ARTICULATION OF CULTURAL IDENTITY THROUGH PSALM MOTETS, AUGSBURG 1540–1585 Megan K. Eagen A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Anne MacNeil Tim Carter John Nádas David Crook Ruth von Bernuth © 2016 Megan K. Eagen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Megan K. Eagen: The Articulation of Cultural Identity through Psalm Motets, Augsburg 1540–1585 (Under the direction of Anne MacNeil) In this dissertation, I analyze the social and religious climate in Augsburg from 1540–1585 through the lens of psalm motets. The period between the initial shockwave of the Reformation and the sociocultural upheavals that ultimately produced the Thirty Years War may be characterized as one of intense negotiations regarding religious freedoms. The environment encouraged and even necessitated the development of materials oriented toward specific confessional groups. At the same time, residents of biconfessional cities such as Augsburg needed to find subtle or nonconfrontative ways to express their views. Despite both nascent and deep-seated differences, Catholics and Protestants of diverse sects all used the Psalter. This study interprets selections and centonizations of musically set psalm texts as indicators of multireligious communal identities. Source materials consulted for this project include over one hundred prints and manuscripts of motets held at the Augsburg State and City Library and at the Bavarian State Library in Munich. The makeup of this repertory is defined by Augsburg’s close connection to the Habsburg dynasty: composers represented in these volumes were active almost exclusively within the bounds of the Holy Roman Empire, and many composed for imperial courts.
