Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tercentenary of Marc-Antoine Charpentier's death in 2004 stimulated a surge of activity on the part of performers and scholars, confirming the modern assessment of Charpentier (1643-1704) as one of the most important and inventive composers of the French Baroque. The present book provides a snapshot of Charpentier scholarship in the early years of the new century. Its 13 chapters illustrate not only the sheer variety of strands currently pursued, but also the way in which these strands frequently intertwine and generate the potential for future research. Between them, they examine facets of the composer's compositional language and process, aspects of his performance practice and notation, the contexts within which he worked, and the nature of his legacy. The appendix contains a transcription of the inventory of Charpentier's manuscripts prepared when their sale to the Royal Library was negotiated in 1726 - an invaluable research tool, as numerous chapters in the book demonstrate. The wide variety of topics covered here will appeal both to readers interested in Charpentier's music and to those with a broader interest in the music and culture of the French Baroque, including aspects of patronage, church and theatre. Far from treating his output in isolation, this book places it in the wider context alongside such composers as Lully, Lalande, Marais, Fran‘s Couperin and Rameau; it also views the composer in relation to his Italian training. In the process, the under-examined question of influence - who influenced Charpentier? whom did he influence? - repeatedly comes to the fore. The book's Foreword was written by H. Wiley Hitchcock shortly before he died. Hitchcock's own part in raising the profile of Charpentier and his music to the level of recognition which it now enjoys cannot be emphasized enough. Appropriately the volume is dedicated to his memory.

Book Synopsis A Case for Charpentier by : Carla E. Williams
Download or read book A Case for Charpentier written by Carla E. Williams and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who originally authored the anonymous, undated French manuscript Traité d'accompagnement et de composition? Carla E. Williams tackles this mystery while providing the first English translation of this rare manuscript, which resides in the collections of the Lilly Library at Indiana University Bloomington. A Case for Charpentier presents a side-by-side transcription and translation of the treatise along with an introduction that offers historical context. In the manuscript itself, late 17th-century and early 18th-century writers discuss principal musical elements of composition including major and minor modes, the fundamental chords of both modes, dissonances and consonances, meter, tempo, and continuo realization, as well as basse continue. While these writers have not been formally identified, Williams argues that the handwriting of one is that of composer Marc-Antoine Charpentier. By providing a full physical description of the manuscript, along with comparisons of Charpentier's other writings and his handwriting, Williams sheds new light on both the treatise and Charpentier's theoretical writings. With this translation, Williams not only shares invaluable insights into the pedagogical approaches for composition and continuo realization in late 17th-century France but also finally makes Traité d'accompagnement et de composition available to a broader audience.

Book Synopsis Marc-Antoine Charpentier and the Flûte by : David Lasocki
Download or read book Marc-Antoine Charpentier and the Flûte written by David Lasocki and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marc-Antoine Charpentier (1643-1702) is now recognized as the greatest French composer of the 17th century. He wrote over 120 works, mostly vocal, in which he called for flûtes, mostly in pairs, as well as about 80 further works in which he might have intended the unmarked treble parts to be played on flûtes. But which instruments did he have in mind? Recorders (and of what sizes)? Renaissance flutes or Baroque traversos (and of what sizes)? Drawing on the latest research by Charpentier scholars, David Lasocki has surveyed the entire corpus of the composer's works written, or possibly written, for flûtes, looking at the characteristics of the parts as well as the ensembles and occasions for which the works were written-the Guise Music, the Dauphin's Music, the Jesuits, and the Sainte-Chapelle. He has therefore been able to reach more reliable, and more surprising, conclusions about the flûtes than earlier scholars. If you love Charpentier, if you play Charpentier, if you want to get to know this wonderful composer's works better, or if you are interested in the history of the recorder and flute, this book is a must-have for you. The text is accompanied by no fewer than 48 musical examples, most of them of playable length.
