Abstract

Al final del siglo XV, y hasta la mitad del siglo XVI, la música todavía no se había independizado de la letra con la que formaba un concierto armonioso. Da la pauta el canto religioso y lo profano respeta tan inspirados ejemplos ofreciendo música cantada y canto musicado. La sociedad de corte es la que ofrece la ilustración más brillante de la textura musical del verso, tanto como de la riqueza expresiva de la música. Parece natural que filólogos y musicólogos se concierten para estudiar estos elementos de la poesía cantada de los siglos XV y XVI. ¡Pero los primeros sólo estudian la letra, los segundos únicamente el canto! De ahí surgió la idea de delimitar cuál fue el entorno en que creció y floreció la poesía cantada. Las fuentes están disponibles en el caso de las personas reales, o las partituras y tablaturas conservadas en los tratados de vihuela. Pero en la mayoría de los casos, el investigador debe reconstruir la figura de un poeta-músico, el conjunto de una obra, los versos que fueron cantados sin que nadie se molestara en apuntar la música. Toda una serie de problemas que no hubieran podido ser resueltos sin la colaboración efectiva de filólogos y musicólogos, cuyo intento queda reflejado en estas páginas.

Abstract

Istvan Anhalt, himself a composer of many vocal works, has written an interdisciplinary study of the innovative vocal and choral music that has emerged in Europe and North America since the Second World War. This music has amazed, confused, sometimes shocked, and often deeply moved its listeners, and the author probes its very roots. Anhalt sketches briefly the antecedents of this revolutionary music and then illustrates the subject by looking closely at works by three of the greatest composers of modern vocal and choral music: Luciano Berio's Sequenza III for female solo voice, GyÓ§rgy Ligeti's Nouvelles Aventures for three solo voices and small instrumental ensemble, and Witold Lutoslawski's Trois Poemes d'Henri Michaux for large chorus and orchestra. The author next seeks to formulate a conceptual framework to explain post-war vocal composition. He discusses relationships between poetry and music, speaking and singing, theatre and music, and composers and performers. He identifies and examines recurring themes in his corpus, including hallowed and cursed names, repetition as a mythical and/or mystical technique, the arcane, magical elements in music and language, and music as spectacle or celebration and as a search for the past. Anhalt also considers the structural elements and compositional procedures used in creating this type of music. The complex associations with other creative activities that typify modern vocal composition help to make it, as Anhalt shows clearly, an extraordinary rich mosaic of alternative voices.

Abstract

Devotion to Saint Anne, the apocryphal mother of the Virgin Mary, reached its height in the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Until now, Anne's reception history and political symbolism during this period have been primarily discussed through the lens of art history. This is the first study to explore the music that honoured the saint and its connections to some of the most prominent court cultures of western Europe. Michael Alan Anderson examines plainchant and polyphonic music for Saint Anne, in sources both familiar and previously unstudied, to illuminate not only Anne's wide-ranging intercessional capabilities but also the political force of the music devoted to her. Whether viewed as a fertility aide, wise mother, or dynastic protector, she modelled a number of valuable roles that rulers reflected in the music of their devotional programmes to project their noble lineage and prestige.

Abstract

Pietro d'Abano (c. 1257-1315) est l'un des principaux commentateurs des Problemata aristotéliciens (c. 250 avant J.-Chr.) dont la section XIX traite de divers aspects du son et de la musique vocale et instrumentale. Rédigé autour de 1300 et largement diffusé aux XIVe et XVe siècles, le commentaire des cinquante problèmes de cette section développe un discours novateur sur la perception du chant et de la musique instrumentale et leurs effets. Partagé entre raison et sensibilité, il est dominé par une approche physique et psycho-physiologique du phénomène sonore et de sa perception qui rompt avec le discours philosophico-mathématique hérité de Boèce. Le texte de base de la présente édition est celui de l'édition de Venise (1519). Il a été révisé à la lumière d'un ensemble de sources manuscrites, dont les plus anciennes.

Abstract

Expanding the notion of translation, this book specifically focuses on the transferences between music and text. The concept of 'translation' is often limited solely to language transfer. It is, however, a process occurring within and around most forms of artistic expression. Music, considered a language in its own right, often refers to text discourse and other art forms. In translation, this referential relationship must be translated too. How is music affected by text translation? How does music influence the translation of the text it sets? How is the sense of both the text and the music transferred in the translation process? Combining theory with practice, the book questions the process and role translation has to play in a musical context. It provides a range of case studies across interdisciplinary fields. It is the first collection on music in translation that is not restricted to one discipline, including explorations of opera libretti, surtitling, art song, musicals, poetry, painting, sculpture and biography, alongside looking at issues of accessibility.

Abstract

Le projet de cet ouvrage part d'un constat : les historiens se sont peu attachés à l'étude des textes appuyés sur un support musical et ils les ont trop souvent traités comme des écrits ordinaires. La rareté des travaux dans ces domaines résulte pour une large part du statut mixte d'un genre inadapté aux procédures de l'analyse et du commentaire du texte. À la différence des « catéchismes » et manuels de tout genre dont on retient les formules apprises par cœur, du discours politique ou du sermon dont on retient plus l'esprit que les formules, l'assimilation du texte chanté se fait à la fois par un air et par des paroles. Qu'il s'agisse de la chanson politique ou du chant religieux, c'est la musique qui guide les paroles, qui aide à les mémoriser et contribue à maintenir une atmosphère, des sentiments, des convictions que l'air simplement fredonné suffit à faire revivre. On pressent donc facilement que l'impact du chant ne résulte pas seulement d'une opération intellectuelle, mais qu'il dépend des formes de sociabilité et qu'il structure des représentations et concerne au premier chef l'éducation des sens, de l'émotion et du goût. Tous les mouvements idéologiques ou religieux ont utilisé le support musical pour convaincre, pour rallier, pour souder foules, militants ou croyants. L'essai d'une étude simultanée de l'organisation formelle des textes et des structures musicales fonde l'originalité même de cet ouvrage qui supposait l'intervention conjointe d'historiens, de musicologues et d'ethnomusicologues. Du Moyen Âge à Yves Montand, de la Bretagne ancienne à celle du xxe siècle, ces textes illustrent, dans leur nécessaire diversité, les aspects d'une problématique riche de promesses.

Abstract

Texts centred on the mother of Jesus abound in religious traditions the world over, but thirteenth-century Old French lyric stands apart, both because of the enormous size of the Marian cult in thirteenth-century France and the lack of critical attention the genre has garnered from scholars.As hybrid texts, Old French Marian songs combine motifs from several genres and registers to articulate a devotional message. In this comprehensive and illuminating study, Daniel E. O?Sullivan examines the movement between secular and religious traditions in medieval culture that Old French religious song embodies. He demonstrates that Marian lyric was far more than a simple, mindless imitation of secular love song. On the contrary, Marian lyric participated in a dynamic interplay with the secular tradition that different composers shaped and reshaped in light of particular doctrinal and aesthetic concerns. It is a corpus that reveals itself to be far more malleable and supple than past readers have admitted.With an extensive index of musical and textual editions of dozens of songs, Marian Devotion in Thirteenth-Century French Lyric brings a heretofore neglected genre to light.
