Abstract

J.A. Fuller Maitland (1856-1936), whose Schumann in the Novello 'Great Musicians' series is also reissued in this series, had a wide-ranging interest in music. He was music critic of The Times for 22 years, was the editor of the second edition of Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians, prepared an edition of the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, and also worked on Purcell and on folk song. This book, published in 1894, surveys the then current state of German music, with essays on Brahms, Bruch, Goldmark and Rheinberger. Bruckner is mentioned as a 'Little Master', and Richard Strauss appears in the final chapter, entitled 'New Paths (?)' but the surprise for present-day readers is that the composer fulsomely claimed by Fuller Maitland as the natural successor to Wagner, Cyrill Kistler, is now almost completely unknown.

Abstract

Seit der Antike galt die Musik als eine mathematische Kunst. Um 1700 beginnen die musikalischen Denker, sich an einer anderen Leitwissenschaft zu orientierten: dem Rechtsdenken der Zeit. Diesen Paradigmenwechsel lotet der Band in elf Beiträgen aus musikgeschichtlicher, literaturgeschichtlicher, philosophischer und rechtsgeschichtlicher Perspektive aus. Die musikalische Praxis des Komponierens, Spielens und Hörens bekommt einen neuen und stärkeren Stellenwert für die Musiktheorie. Kriterien der Zweckmäßigkeit, des Geschmacks und des Erfolgs bestimmen nun die musikalische Norm. Der Band zeigt auf, wie sich die Musiktheorie um 1700 an den neuen Wissensformen des galanten Diskurses, der Naturrechtsdebatten des gesellschaftlichen Modebewusstseins orientiert. Beleuchtet wird die Debatte in Deutschland, Frankreich und England. Die neue Form des musikalischen Wissens hat weitgehende Wechselwirkungen mit der musikalischen Praxis. Der neue musikalische Stil um 1700 wird fassbar als kompositorische Umsetzung eines gewandelten Verständnisses musikalischer Norm, die sich nicht mehr aus überzeitlichen musikalischen Gesetzmäßigkeiten speist, sondern den Wandel von musikalischem Empfinden und musikalischem Geschmack selbst als normatives Prinzip enthält.
