Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dieser Band behandelt ein zentrales Moment der Entwicklung in der italienischen Musik um 1600, das gleichermaßen Geschichte des Komponierens, Notierens und der Aufführungspraxis betrifft: die Integration von Akkordinstrumenten in die musikalische Produktion (im weitesten Sinn). Dabei steht das Phänomen des Generalbasses im Mittelpunkt, das nicht nur zahlreiche aufführungspraktische, sondern auch diverse historiographische Fragen aufwirft. So ist der Generalbass nur eine Spielart innerhalb eines breiten Spektrums musikalischer Praktiekn, er resultiert aus vielfältigen historischen Voraussetzungen und steht in Wechselwirkung mit dem Komponieren, der (theoretischen) Konzeption des mehrstimmigen Satzes, aber auch dem musikkulturellen Kontext des späten 16. und frühen 17. Jahrhunderts.

A special emphasis is laid on the Düben Collection, one of the largest music collections of seventeenth-century Europe, preserved at the Uppsala University Library.

Book Synopsis Celestial Sirens by : Robert L. Kendrick
Download or read book Celestial Sirens written by Robert L. Kendrick and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1996-05-23 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates an almost unknown musical culture: that of cloistered nuns in one of the major cities of early modern Europe. These women were the most famous musicians of Milan, and the music composed for them opens up a hitherto unstudied musical repertory, which allows insight into the symbolic world of the city. Even more importantly, the music actually composed by four such nuns, Claudia Scossa, Claudia Rusca, Chiara Margarita Cozzollani, and Rosa Giacinta Badalla - reveals the musical expression of women's devotional life. The two centuries' worth of battles over nuns' singing of polyphony, studies here for the first time on the basis of massive archival documentation, also suggest that the implementation of reform in the major centre of post-Tridentine Catholic renewal was far more varied; incomplete, subject to local political pressure and individual interpretation, and short-lived than any religious historian has ever suggested. Other factors that marked nuns' musical lives and creative output - liturgical traditions of the religious orders, the problems of performance practice attendant upon all-female singing ensembles - are here addressed for the first time in the musicological literature.

Book Synopsis Music and Religious Education in Early Modern Europe by :
Download or read book Music and Religious Education in Early Modern Europe written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the nexus of music and religious education involves fundamental questions regarding music itself, its nature, its interpretation, and its importance in relation to both education and the religious practices into which it is integrated. This cross-disciplinary volume of essays offers the first comprehensive set of studies to examine the role of music in educational and religious reform and the underlying notions of music in early modern Europe. It elucidates the context and manner in which music served as a means of religious teaching and learning during that time, thereby identifying the religio-cultural and intellectual foundations of early modern European musical phenomena and their significance for exploring the interplay of music and religious education today.
Book Synopsis The Imitation of Christ by : William C. Creasy
Download or read book The Imitation of Christ written by William C. Creasy and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Imitation of Christ has appeared in more editions and in more languages than any other book except the Bible. Samuel Johnson once remarked to Bowell that it "must be a good book, as the world has opened its arms to receive it." Others have praised it as well, including Thomas Carlyle, George Eliot, Thomas De Quincey, and Matthew Arnold. Among the religious, St. Ignatius Loyola translated it, and Pope John Paul I was said to have been reading it the night that he died. It has been standard fare in religious training and personal devotion for centuries. Yet today, few people know the Imitation and those who do more often than not think it hopelessly out of date, a pre-Vatican II relic, full of contempt for the world and self-loathing. It is a curious state of affairs, and one that reveals more about a contemporary audience's response to the book than it does about the book itself. When a contemporary reader encounters a line such as "this is the highest wisdom: through contempt of the world to aspire to the kingdom of heaven," his response is a very different one from that of a fifteenth - or nineteenth-century reader. For an "informed response" (as Stanley Fish would say) to the contemptus mundi theme, the reader must draw deeply on a vast complex of literary, linguistic, historical, and theological knowledge. Creasy's translation of the Imitation strives to recreate a text that provides an analogous experience to that of the fifteenth-century reader. Relying heavily on reader-response theory, he incorporates an "informed reader's" response into the text itself. Where possible, the text echoes both the deep structure and the surface structure of the Latin-even to the point of replicating sentence structures and rhetorical devices while avoiding any distortion of the reader's experience. Although the language and style of his translation has been crafted for modern readers, the fervor and power of the original text have not been lost. Dr. Creasy's work on the Imitation of Christ has become the standard translation of this spiritual classic, bringing it to life for a new generation of readers. Book jacket.
