Froberger’s fantasias and canzonas are amongst his most beautifully crafted yet most neglected works. They survive together with toccatas and partitas in a meticulously written autograph manuscript, the Libro Secondo, dated 19 September 1649 (A-Wn Mus.Hs.18706). They have been selectively performed and recorded in recent times on organ and harpsichord, but hardly at all on the clavichord. A recording on clavichord was clearly needed but until recently I had not come across an instrument which I felt was equal to the task. Then, in 2018, quite by chance, I discovered the clavichord used in these performances. It is a reconstruction of a south German clavichord now in the Berlin Musical Instrument Museum (hereafter referred to by the catalogue number of the original, MIM 2160) and was made by Andreas Hermert in 2009.

  • Keyboard Music Is
    Seventeenth-Century Keyboard Music in Dutch- and German-Speaking Europe David Schulenberg (2004, updated 2021) Keyboard music is central to our understanding of the Baroque, particularly in northern Europe, whose great church organs were among the technological and artistic wonders of the age. This essay treats of the distinctive traditions of keyboard music in Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands before the time of Johann Sebastian Bach and other eighteenth-century musicians. Baroque keyboard music followed in a continuous tradition that of the sixteenth century, when for the first time major composers such as William Byrd (1543–1623) in England and Andrea Gabrieli (ca. 1510–1586) in Italy had created repertories of original keyboard music equal in stature to their contributions in other genres. Such compositions joined improvised music and arrangements of vocal and instrumental works as the foundations of keyboard players' repertories. Nevertheless, the actual practice of keyboard players during the Baroque continued to comprise much improvisation. Keyboard players routinely accompanied other musicians, providing what is called the basso continuo through the improvised realization of a figured bass.1 On the relatively rare occasions when solo keyboard music was heard in public, it often took the form of improvised preludes and fantasias, as in church services and the occasional public organ recital. Hence, much of the Baroque repertory of written compositions for solo keyboard instruments consists of idealized improvisations. The capacity of keyboard instruments for self-sufficient polyphonic playing also made them uniquely suited for the teaching and study of composition. Thus a second large category of seventeenth-century keyboard music comprises models for good composition, especially in learned, if somewhat archaic, styles of counterpoint.

  • Conference Abstracts
    The Society for Seventeenth­Century Music Eighth Annual Conference Vermillion, South Dakota April 27-30, 2000 ABSTRACTS (in alphabetical order by author) SPANISH NUN MUSICIANS: EARLY MODERN CAREER GIRLS? Colleen R. Baade Lincoln, Nebraska This paper examines the social situation of Spanish nun musicians at women’s monasteries in Madrid, Segovia, Toledo, and Valladolid during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Sources for my study include contracts for reception and profession of nun musicians whose dowries were waived or reduced in exchange for their service as musician, and monastery account books which show that some religious communities paid regular monetary stipends to sister musicians. I will address the question of just what a girl’s musical ability was worth and discuss ways in which the duties of and compensation to nun musicians changed from the beginning of the seventeenth century to the end of the eighteenth. It has been contended that a position as convent musician constituted one of very few “career opportunities” available to women in early modern Europe, but documentary evidence suggests that the majority of girls who received dowry waivers were prepared from early childhood by parents or guardians to become nun musicians because their families had no other means of paying a nun’s dowry, let alone any prospects for securing a suitable marriage. The demands placed upon “hired” nun musicians were probably quite heavy, and most of these women, unless prevented by illness or old age, were expected to serve as convent musicians their entire lives. In one case, a nun whose age and ailment prevented her from playing was required to refund part of the dowry that had been waived for her in order to be released from her duties as convent musician.

  • Discographie – Vater Unser – Georg Böhm
    DISCOGRAPHIE – VATER UNSER – GEORG BÖHM Présentation À l’issue de la Guerre de Trente Ans, l’Allemagne luthérienne est dévastée et c’est dans le souvenir des horreurs de cette guerre que s’y développe un style musical particulièrement expressif. Celui-ci est le résultat de la fusion entre la tradition polyphonique luthérienne et les influences de la nouvelle musique italienne. La musique instrumentale y joue un rôle prépondérant. Ce sont principalement les cordes qui tissent autour des voix un accompagnement polyphonique qu’il s’agisse d’introductions, de ritournelles, voire de véritables commentaires au texte. C’est ce que l’on peut entendre dans les compositions d’Heinrich Schütz, Franz Tunder, David Pohle, Johann Theile, Johann Wolfgang Franck... Parmi ses compositeurs se trouvent aussi les ancêtres de Johann Sebastian Bach, Johann Michael et Johann Christoph. Ce programme débute par une composition de Schütz, basée sur la mélodie d’un choral luthérien, et se conclût par la cantate Wiederstehe doch der Sünde de Johann Sebastian Bach, véritable héritier de tout ce mouvement musical du XVIIe siècle. Cette cantate a été composée au début de sa carrière à la cour de Weimar. L’écriture à cinq parties pour les cordes démontre une fois de plus l’héritage de la tradition du XVIIesiècle.
