Tabelle 2: Die Chansons mit weiblichem lyrischen Ich aus dem Katalog von David Fallows (angelehnt an: Fallows, David: A Catalogue of Polyphonic Songs 1415–1480, Oxford: Oxford University Press 1999.) IV 1. Einleitung Das 15. Jahrhundert konnte bereits auf eine lange Diskurstradition über die Geschlechterrollen- bzw. Identitäten von Frau und Mann, sowohl in der geistlichen bzw. kirchlichen, als auch in der weltlichen Literatur zurückblicken (z.B. in Erziehungsschriften, in der Deutung und Interpretation von Bibelpassagen etc.). Konkrete Vorstellungen, einerseits über die Beziehung bzw. die Umgangsformen zwischen Mann und Frau, über männliche und weibliche Verhaltensweisen sowie die damit verbundenen Geschlechterrollen wurden insbesondere auch im Bereich der Lyrik vermittelt: Beispielsweise hatte die Stilisierung der Liebe zwischen der noblen Dame und ihrem scheinbar unterworfenen Verehrer in der Tradition der Minne bzw. der höfischen Liebe in den Dichtungen der Troubadour und Trouvères ihren Ursprung und bereits einen ersten Höhepunkt. Der Diskurs der Geschlechter, sei es auf literarischer Ebene oder im alltäglichen Leben selbst, hatte in jedem Fall auch Auswirkungen auf die Identität eines männlichen oder weiblichen lyrischen Ichs, sprich, er wirkte sich auf die „Stimme“ des jeweiligen lyrischen Ichs aus. In diesem Zusammenhang spielt für den Inhalt der vorliegenden Arbeit insbesondere jener Umstand eine wichtige Rolle, dass der Topos des „Verlassen werdens“ in der europäischen Dichtkunst bereits seit der Antike ein „weibliches Genre“ gewesen ist. Das literarische Sujet der „verlassenen Frau“ stellte bereits das zentrale Thema in Ovids „Heroides“ bzw. „Epistulae Heroidum“ dar, einer Sammlung von Briefen verlassener bzw. im Stich gelassener Frauen: „Through the heroines of mythology Ovid encompasses a vast case history of sorrowful situations which have abandoned women as their protagonists – for various reasons and with various outcomes. His heroines weep alone as they wait for death (Arianna), they opt for suicide (Phyllis, Dido), they wish misfortune on their faithless lover (Hypsipyle), they are bent on horrific revenge (Medea) and so on.”1 Dabei, so Vincenzo Borghetti, kehren bestimmte Themen im Großteil der Briefe besonders häufig wieder, und zwar insbesondere die Einsamkeit der verlassenen Frau, die Anklage des männlichen Treuebruchs sowie die Unfähigkeit, eine Begründung für diesen Bruch zu finden, wobei die Frau diesen nicht als Folge des Verhaltens ihrerseits betrachtet, sondern diesen als unerklärlich empfindet und der Schuldige dafür ganz allein der Mann ist.2 Borghetti zieht in seinem Aufsatz “Fors seulement l’actente que je meure: Ockeghem’s Rondeau and the gendered rhetoric of grief”, davon ausgehend eine Parallele zum Text-Inhalt und der Diktion 1 Borghetti, Vincenzo: “Fors seulement l‟actente que je meure: Ockeghem‟s Rondeau and the gendered rhetoric of grief”, in: Early Music History 31/1 (2012), S.57. 2 Ebda. S.57–58. 1 des weiblichen lyrischen Ichs im Rondeau „Fors seulement l’actente que je meure“ von Johannes Ockeghem aus dem 15. Jahrhundert, einem Text, in dem ebenfalls eine verlassene Frau ihr Leid beklagt und den Tod als die letzte Hoffnung auf die Befreiung aus ihrem Leid betrachtet. Dieses im 15. Jahrhundert äußerst populäre Rondeau weist nämlich in Bezug auf gewisse kompositorische Maßnahmen einige Besonderheiten auf: Durch die auffällige Disposition von Superius und Tenor bzw. durch den Umstand, dass diese beiden Stimmen das gesamte Rondeau hindurch überaus eng aneinander liegen und sich außerdem

  • Romance and Writing: Interpreting the Lyric Domnas of Occitania
    Trends in Historiography Romance and Writing: Interpreting the Lyric Domnas of Occitania by Aubri E. Thurmond “I’ll ask you this: when a lady freely loves a man, should she do as much for him as he for her, according to the rules of courtly love?”1 These words are attributed to Maria de Ventadorn, a woman composing in the lyric tradition of the troubadours. From 1100-1300 A.D., Occitania (Southern France) produced over 400 troubadours whose poetry shaped the concepts of romantic love in the West. Their poems, written in langue d’oc, were expressions of fin’ amor, or courtly love.2 According to Paul Zumthor, “Fin’ amor strives toward a desired but unnamed good, bestowable only by a lady, herself identified only by an emblematic pseudonym: a dialogue without reply, pure song, turning into poetry the movements of a heart contemplating an object whose importance as such is minimal.”3 The troubadour was symbolically dependent on the favor of his lady, therefore seemingly giving her power and humbling himself.4 Fin ‘amor was the source of all courtly values.5 However, there were also women troubadours, called trobairitz, in Southern France. The name trobairitz comes from the root trobar, meaning to compose and the feminine suffix –airitz, literally meaning “a woman who composes.”6 The female troubadours did not refer to themselves as trobairitz. In fact, the term trobairitz is only found once in 13th century literature: in the romance Flamenca, when the heroine calls her maid 1 As quoted in Meg Bogin, The Women Troubadours (Scarborough, England: Paddington Press Ltd., 1976), 99.

  • Chapter 2: Secular and Cathedral Music in the High Middle Ages I
    Chapter 2: Secular and Cathedral Music in the High Middle Ages I. Introduction – Chapter 1 dealt primarily with sacred music, influenced by the fact that initially only sacred music was available for observation. Chapter 2 turns to secular music. II. Troubadours and Trouvères A.Troubadours 1. The first European vernacular poet whose work survives was William IX (7th count of Poitiers and 9th duke of Aquitaine). b. The tradition of these poets is known as the troubadour. c. The troubadour tradition was a “top down” as those of the highest social ranks were the main participants. Their poetry celebrated feudal ideals. d. Different types of troubadour verse dealt with various aspects of the feudal system, including songs of alliance, knightly decorum, exploits, challenges, and death. 2. Courtly love lay at the heart of the troubadour tradition. a. The canso was a song about love. b. Courtly love songs celebrated the same high ideals as other types of songs. c. The lady about whom a poet wrote usually outranked him, making her theoretically unattainable. d. Courtly love was generally more about veneration than physical love. e. The poetic style matches the lofty ideals of courtly love, as demonstrated in Can vei la lauzeta mover. B. Performance and Oral Culture 1. We do not know the rhythm of troubadour songs, but most likely the loftier style of the troubadour songs approximated that of contemporary chant. 2. Some troubadour songs matched a lower-class style; these were not based on chant style. a. Pastorela is one such genre. b. L’autrier jost’ una sebissa by Marcabru is an example.

  • Tell Me a Story; Hell Hath No Fury: a Set of Voice Recitals on the Overlap of Music, Literature, and Classics, and Their Treatme
    Tell Me A Story; Hell Hath No Fury A set of voice recitals on the overlap of Music, Literature, and Classics, and their treatment and depiction of women Senior Project Submitted to The Division of the Arts of Bard College by Alexandra Gilman Annandale-on-Hudson, New York May 2020 1 Artist Statement Over the past four years, I have had the privilege of answering the question, “what is your major?” My reply exists in various degrees of specificity. I am a Music major. I am a Classical Voice major. I am a voice major who is concentrating in Medieval Studies. Layer upon layer is added. The more specific I am, the more niche it all seems to become. Yet, that which I love exists in these niches, the in-between spaces where different areas of academia come together to create something new. Something that I have always appreciated about art, in general, is its fluidity. Art does not try to exist in a vacuum. Music takes its influence from all aspects of the world: nature, literature, mythology, history, even math. I have loved being able to explore these spaces, bringing together the different aspects of my study as opposed to keeping them isolated from one another. There is, in particular, a strong overlap between music, literature, and Classics; three of my most frequent studies at Bard. This became the prompt for my first concert, as well as an overall guiding theme of my repertoire. Tell Me A Story is a program constructed around the ​ ​ tales of my childhood, the ones that inspired me and guided me to the path I am on.

  • Levitsky Dissertation
    The Song from the Singer: Personification, Embodiment, and Anthropomorphization in Troubadour Lyric Anne Levitsky Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Anne Levitsky All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Song from the Singer: Personification, Embodiment, and Anthropomorphization in Troubadour Lyric Anne Levitsky This dissertation explores the relationship of the act of singing to being a human in the lyric poetry of the troubadours, traveling poet-musicians who frequented the courts of contemporary southern France in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. In my dissertation, I demonstrate that the troubadours surpass traditionally-held perceptions of their corpus as one entirely engaged with themes of courtly romance and society, and argue that their lyric poetry instead both displays the influence of philosophical conceptions of sound, and critiques notions of personhood and sexuality privileged by grammarians, philosophers, and theologians. I examine a poetic device within troubadour songs that I term ‘personified song’—an occurrence in the lyric tradition where a performer turns toward the song he/she is about to finish singing and directly addresses it. This act lends the song the human capabilities of speech, motion, and agency. It is through the lens of the ‘personified song’ that I analyze this understudied facet of troubadour song. Chapter One argues that the location of personification in the poetic text interacts with the song’s melodic structure to affect the type of personification the song undergoes, while exploring the ways in which singing facilitates the creation of a body for the song.

  • Masters of the Choirboys and the Strategies of Their Appoint­ Ment at the Cathedral of Cambrai, 1459-1539
    Masters of the Choirboys and the Strategies of their Appoint­ ment at the Cathedral of Cambrai, 1459-1539. 力ンブレー大聖堂における少年聖歌隊教師とその雇用戦略1459年 - 1539年 山本成生 Yamamoto N aruo 「少年聖歌隊教師magister pueromm altaris」は,現 代 に 「作曲家」 として名を残す著名な音楽家 が多数在職していた一方で,その基本的な職務内容や社会的身分,価値基準については不明な点が多 く. 「ルネサンス期」における音楽家身分のありかたを考えるうえで興味深い研究対象である。そこ で本稿では,優れた音楽保護が行われていたとされるカンブレー大聖堂を個別事例として取り上げ, その雇用状態やポーラ• ヒギンズが主張する15世紀中葉における職務上要求される資質の変化(「熟 練した教師」か ら 「創造的なメンター」へ)などに関して検討を行った。 1459年-1539年にかけて同教会に在籍していた11名の少年聖歌隊教師ならびにその候補者の就任 過程や在職中の活動を調査した結果,以下の3 点が明らかにされた。① 1460年代における度重なる リクル一トの失敗やわずか1 年で辞職したオブレフトの事例が示しているように,カンブレー大聖堂 の少年聖歌隊教師は,従来の研究者が想定しているほど当時の音楽家のキャリアとして有利なもので はなく, また参事会が何らかの積極的な支援を始めたのは15世紀末になってからである。.②ヒギン ズが唱える価値基準の変化に関しては,この教会ではむしろ反対に長期間の在職が見込まれる「生え 抜き」の者が重用されるようになった。③そして16世紀になると,少年聖歌隊員からその教師を経 て参事会員まで登りつめる一種の「内部昇進」のルートが成立した。 最後に筆者は, ヒギンズの主張と上記の事例は本質的に相反するものではなく,それぞれが中世末 期における音楽家身分の変容過程の一端を示しているのであり, よって今後は他の音楽拠点における 同種の変化を注意深く比較• 検討し, より包括的な見通しないしはモデルを提示することこそ,「ル ネサンス」 と呼ばれる時代の音楽生活をよりよく理解するために必須であると主張し,結論とした。 Master of the choirboys (Lat. magister puerorum altaris-, Fr. maître des enfants d'autel) is an interesting object for one who works on a certain musical center in the fifteenth and sixteenth century Europe. Because its primary functions, social status, and criteria are still unfamiliar to us, even if there are many composers who took the position. The article will try to reveal its social status and the policy of appointment, taking as example the cathedral of Cambrai, which has been considered to provide lavish support for music and employ many talented

    Piffaro’s Beginning Ah, Beginnings…they can be exciting, stimulating and even a little scary at times. They may mark a break with the preexistent in an attempt to chart some new course, or revive an older, lost tradition. So it was with a fledgling group of reed players from the Collegium Musicum at the University of Pennsylvania in 1980, when they decided to launch their own ensemble, calling it simply and graphically, the Renaissance Wind Band. Their intent was to pursue renaissance wind playing, especially the double-reed instruments, the shawms, dulcians, krumhorns and bagpipes, in a way that was lacking in the nascent early music revival in this country at the time, at least on a professional level. It was a courageous and daring leap into the unknown in many ways. And it was Piffaro’s beginning! On a somewhat ragtag collection of instruments, the best available at the time, the group formed a 5-part band and began collecting repertoire, teaching themselves the challenging techniques demanded by the horns, learned how to make successful reeds and figured out who played what, when and how. It was exciting and groundbreaking, something new and uncharted. As with many a nascent experiment in group formation, personnel changed over the first 4 years of ensemble building, but eventually settled into a coterie of like- minded individuals committed to creating an entity with roots that might support the growth of a vibrant and lasting ensemble. What’s a musical ensemble to do but perform, so by the winter of 1984 the group decided it was time to go public, to make the leap into that great unknown of audience response.
