The Liturgical Function of French Baroque Organ Repertoire Aaron James the University of Western Ontario
Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Volume 1 | Issue 1 Article 7 The Liturgical Function of French Baroque Organ Repertoire Aaron James The University of Western Ontario Recommended Citation James, Aaron (2008) " he Liturgical Function of French Baroque Organ Repertoire," Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology: Vol. 1: Iss. 1, Article 7. The Liturgical Function of French Baroque Organ Repertoire Aaron James Year III - The University of Western Ontario The historical association of the organ with Christian church services means that much of the instrument’s repertoire was originally intended to serve a functional, liturgical purpose. Indeed, isolated from its contemporaneous liturgical context, some historical organ repertoire may appear to the modern musician as “unintelligible” and “much…less rich in significance.” 1 The extant repertoire from seventeenth- and eighteenth-century France is particularly extensive and provides a ready example. In contrast to modern practice, in which the organ generally accompanies congregational singing, the liturgy of this period alternated unaccompanied singing with short versets played by the organist. This meant that a liturgical chant such as the Kyrie of the Mass Ordinary would be split into several sections, with even-numbered sections being sung by the choir and the remaining ones being replaced by organ versets. This practice seems strange from a modern perspective; it meant that lengthy and theologically important sections of text would not be heard, since instrumental music was played instead. However, this 1 Edward Higginbottom, “Organ music and the liturgy,” in The Cambridge Companion to the Organ , edited by Nicholas Thistlethwaite and Geoffrey Webber (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1998), 130. -
The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art
The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art By Copyright 2016 Song Yi Park Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Michael Bauer ________________________________ Dr. James Higdon ________________________________ Dr. Colin Roust ________________________________ Dr. Bradley Osborn ________________________________ Professor Jerel Hildig Date Defended: November 1, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Song Yi Park certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The Baroque Offertoire : Apotheosis of the French Organ Art ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Michael Bauer Date approved: November 1, 2016 ii Abstract During the French Baroque period, the function of the organ was primarily to serve the liturgy. It was an integral part of both Mass and the office of Vespers. Throughout these liturgies the organ functioned in alteration with vocal music, including Gregorian chant, choral repertoire, and fauxbourdon. The longest, most glorious organ music occurred at the time of the offertory of the Mass. The Offertoire was the place where French composers could develop musical ideas over a longer stretch of time and use the full resources of the French Classic Grand jeu , the most colorful registration on the French Baroque organ. This document will survey Offertoire movements by French Baroque composers. I will begin with an introductory discussion of the role of the offertory in the Mass and the alternatim plan in use during the French Baroque era. Following this I will look at the tonal resources of the French organ as they are incorporated into French Offertoire movements. -

Trent 91; First Steps Towards a Stylistic Classification (Revised 2019 Version of My 2003 Paper, Originally Circulated to Just a Dozen Specialists)
Trent 91; first steps towards a stylistic classification (revised 2019 version of my 2003 paper, originally circulated to just a dozen specialists). Probably unreadable in a single sitting but useful as a reference guide, the original has been modified in some wording, by mention of three new-ish concordances and by correction of quite a few errors. There is also now a Trent 91 edition index on pp. 69-72. [Type the company name] Musical examples have been imported from the older version. These have been left as they are apart from the Appendix I and II examples, which have been corrected. [Type the document Additional information (and also errata) found since publication date: 1.

Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim. Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven staying in Jerusalem. At this sound, they gathered in a large crowd, but they were confused because each one heard them speaking in his own language. -

Some Historical Perspectives on the Monteverdi Vespers
CHAPTER V SOME HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES ON THE MONTEVERDI VESPERS It is one of the paradoxes of musicological research that we generally be- come acquainted with a period, a repertoire, or a style through recognized masterworks that are tacitly or expressly assumed to be representative, Yet a masterpiece, by definition, is unrepresentative, unusual, and beyond the scope of ordinary musical activity. A more thorough and realistic knowledge of music history must come from a broader and deeper ac- quaintance with its constituent elements than is provided by a limited quan- tity of exceptional composers and works. Such an expansion of the range of our historical research has the advan- tage not only of enhancing our understanding of a given topic, but also of supplying the basis for comparison among those works and artists who have faded into obscurity and the few composers and masterpieces that have sur- vived to become the primary focus of our attention today. Only in relation to lesser efforts can we fully comprehend the qualities that raise the master- piece above the common level. Only by comparison can we learn to what degree the master composer has rooted his creation in contemporary cur- rents, or conversely, to what extent original ideas and techniques are re- sponsible for its special features. Similarly, it is only by means of broader investigations that we can detect what specific historical influence the mas- terwork has had upon contemporaries and younger colleagues, and thereby arrive at judgments about the historical significance of the master com- poser. Despite the obvious importance of systematic comparative studies, our comprehension of many a masterpiece stiIl derives mostly from the artifact itself, resulting inevitably in an incomplete and distorted perspective. -

J. Ross University of Toronto Recommended Citation Ross, Adrian D. J. () "In coelo et in terra: Lutheran Theological Structure of theT roped Magnificats of Michael Praetorius’s Megalynodia Sionia," Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology: Vol. 10: Iss. 1, Article 2. In coelo et in terra: Lutheran Theological Structure of the Troped Magnificats of Michael Praetorius’s Megalynodia Sionia Abstract Michael Praetorius (1571–1621) ranks among the most prolific German musical figures of the seventeenth century. Despite his stature, many of his works, especially his earlier collections, remain largely understudied and underperformed. This paper examines one such early collection, the Megalynodia Sionia, composed in 1602, focussing on the relationship between formal structure of its first three Magnificat settings and the Lutheran theological ideal of uniting the Word of God with music. Structurally, these three Magnificats are distinguished by their interpolation of German chorales within the Latin text. In order to understand his motivations and influences behind the use of this technique unique at the time of composition, the paper explores Praetorius’s religious surroundings in both the personal and civic realms, revealing a strong tradition of orthodox Lutheran theology. To understand the music in light of this religious context, certain orthodox Lutheran liturgical practices are examined, in particular the Vespers service and alternatim, a compositional technique using alternating performing forces which Praetorius used to unite the Latin and German texts. -
