Abstract

Examining the roots of the classical fugue and the early history of non-canonic fugal writing, Paul Walker's Fugue in the Sixteenth Century explores the three principal fugal genres of the period: motet, ricercar, and canonza. The volume treats each genre in turn, tracing the fugue's development throughout the century and highlighting important moments and trends along the way. Taking a two-tiered approach, Walker, on one level, examines fugue from the perspective of contemporary musicians, and on another level, takes into account fugue's later history and the elements that came to play a significant role in its formation. Walker is the first scholar to successfully tie together the various strands of the'pre-Bach fugue'thanks to the growing availability of editions of the repertories involved. He also takes account of recent work elucidating the change in compositional approach around 1500 from a basis in cantus firmus and canon to one favoring non-canonical, fugal imitation. Featuring well-chosen musical examples to illustrate the compositional developments of the sixteenth century, Fugue in the Sixteenth Century is a definitive study for both specialist musicologists and organists and harpsichordists alike.

Abstract

In this volume of the NSE, all five-part motets by Ludwig Senfl are published for the first time. It contains Marian motets such as Mater digna Dei / Ave, sanctissima Maria, which reflect the deep Marian devotion at the court of Duke Wilhelm IV, psalm motets in which Senfl sometimes refers to Josquin Desprez in different ways (e.g. Miserere mei, Deus), or works like Qui prophetice prompsisti, whose Tertia pars Vita in ligno moritur was extraordinarily widespread in the 16th century. In addition, the volume offers for the first time an edition of Senfl's large-scale Te Deum laudamus as well as various multi-text motets. Compositions such as Christ resurgens ex mortuis / Christ has risen show the points of contact between the spiritual Latin and vernacular spheres, other works - for example the Tanto tempore vobiscum / Philippe qui videt me - follow the tradition of the cantus firmus motet, in which Senfl enrolls sustainably. In the present volume of the NSE, all of Ludwig Senfl's five-part motets are published for the first time. It includes Marian motets such as Mater digna Dei / Ave, sanctissima Maria reflecting the Marian devotion at the court of Duke Wilhelm IV, psalm motets that refer to Josquin Desprez in various ways (e. g. Miserere mei, Deus), or works such as Qui prophetice prompsisti, whose tertia pars Vita in ligno moritur was widespread during the sixteenth century.In addition, the volume offers the first edition of Senfl's large-scale Te Deum laudamus as well as several polytextual motets. Compositions such as Christus resurgens ex mortuis / Christ ist erstanden show the points of contact between the sacred Latin and the vernacular spheres, while other works - for example Tanto tempore vobiscum / Philippe qui videt me - take up the long tradition of the cantus firmus motet , into which Senfl inscribes himself with lasting effect.

Abstract

During the lifetime of Guillaume Du Fay (c. 1400-1474) the motet underwent a profound transformation. Because of the protean nature of the motet during this period, problems of definition have always stood in the way of a full understanding of this crucial shift. Through a comprehensive survey of the surviving repertory, Julie Cumming shows that the motet is best understood on the level of the subgenre. She employs new ideas about categories taken from cognitive psychology and evolutionary theory to illuminate the process by which the subgenres of the motet arose and evolved. One important finding is the nature and extent of the crucial role that English music played in the genre's transformation. Cumming provides a close reading of many little-known pieces; she also shows how Du Fay's motets were the product of sophisticated experimentation with generic boundaries.

Abstract

The sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries - the so-called Golden Age of Polyphony - represent a time of great change and development in European music, with the flourishing of Orlando di Lasso, Palestrina, Byrd, Victoria, Monteverdi and Schütz among others. The chapters of this book, contributed by established scholars on subjects within their fields of expertise, deal with polyphonic music - sacred and secular, vocal and instrumental - during this period. The volume offers chronological surveys of national musical cultures (in Italy, France, the Netherlands, Germany, England, and Spain); genre studies (Mass, motet, madrigal, chanson, instrumental music, opera); and is completed with essays on intellectual and cultural developments and concepts relevant to music (music theory, printing, the Protestant Reformation and the corresponding Catholic movement, humanism, concepts of "Renaissance" and "Baroque"). It thus provides a complete overview of the music and its context.
