Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Keyboard Music, Vol. 2: A Collection of Pieces Written for the Virginal, Spinet, Harpsichord, and Clavichord Besides dances, composers of this period occupied themselves with Fantasias, Preludes, Toccatas, and Variations. The Toccata was one of the earliest specifically instrumental forms. It had no well-defined requirements; but one of its obvious features was a flowing movement, often regularly recurring figures, frequently of rapid running passages, with little decided melodic character; thus, like the Fantasia and Prelude, it was in the nature of a brilliant improvisation. In the Variation was soon found a medium for the development and display of the composer's ingenuity and the executant's technical facility; and it was considered appropriate to many of the dances just described. When composers came to perceive the value of the artistic balance and contrast to be obtained by grouping together dances of different tempos, rhythms and character, grave and gay, the Suite came into being. There was no definite rule, even in the latest and lightest development of the Suite, establishing the kind and order of the movements to be used; and in the earliest examples we find an infinite variety. However, the Suite was always in the same key throughout. By the beginning of the seventeenth century some general principles of choice and arrangement were cur rently accepted; with or without a Prelude, the Suite was often constituted of an Allemande, a Courante, a Sarabande and a Gigue, in the above order; but sometimes other movements were employed.

Book Synopsis Perspectives on Early Keyboard Music and Revival in the Twentieth Century by : Rachelle Taylor
Download or read book Perspectives on Early Keyboard Music and Revival in the Twentieth Century written by Rachelle Taylor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth-century revival of early music unfolded in two successive movements rooted respectively in nineteenth-century antiquarianism and in rediscovery of the value of original instruments. The present volume is a collection of insights reflecting the principal concerns of the second of those revivals, focusing on early keyboards, and beginning in the 1950s. The volume and its authors acknowledge Canadian harpsichordist Kenneth Gilbert (b. 1931) as one of this revival’s leaders. The content reflects international research on early keyboard music, sources, instruments, theory, editing, and discography. Considerations that echo throughout the book are the problematics of source attributions, progressive institutionalization of early music, historical instruments as agents of artistic change and education, antecedents and networks of the revival seen as a social phenomenon, the impact of historical performance and the quest for understanding style and genre. The chapters cover historical performance practice, source studies, edition, theory and form, and instrument curating and building. Among their authors are prominent figures in performance, music history, editing, instrument building and restoration, and theory, some of whom engaged with the early keyboard revival as it was happening.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Keyboard Music, Vol. 2: A Collection of Pieces Written for the Virginal, Spinet, Harpsichord, and Clavichord Orlando gibbons was born in Cambridge in 1583, of a noted family of musicians, and, like the other virginal-composers, was highly distinguished as an organist. In that capacity he received an appointment, in 1604, to the Chapel Royal, and in 1623 to Westminster Abbey. He composed much church-music; his first virginal-music was published in 1610, and the following year he joined Byrde and Bull in the publication of the famous virginal-collection entitled Parthenia. John blow came upon the scene after the art of music in England had been crushed and many of its leading practitioners dispersed by the Civil War and Pur itan domination. Born in 1648, he was among the first to join the reestablished Children of the Chapel Royal after the Restoration. While yet a chorister, he tried his hand at composition, and attained no mean eminence in the eyes of his contem poraries through his church-music and as an organist, in the latter capacity occupy ing some of.
