Performance Practice
Performance practice is the study of how music was performed over the centuries, both by its originators (the composers and performers who introduced the works) and, later, by revivalists. This first of its kind Dictionary offers entries on composers, musiciansperformers, technical terms, performance centers, musical instruments, and genres, all aimed at elucidating issues in performance practice. This A-Z guide will help students, scholars, and listeners understand how musical works were originally performed and subsequently changed over the centuries. Compiled by a leading scholar in the field, this work will serve as both a point-of-entry for beginners as well as a roadmap for advanced scholarship in the field.
The Ashgate Research Companion to Henry Purcell
The Ashgate Research Companion to Henry Purcell provides a comprehensive and authoritative review of current research into Purcell and the environment of Restoration music, with contributions from leading experts in the field. Seen from the perspective of modern, interdisciplinary approaches to scholarship, the companion allows the reader to develop a rounded view of the environment in which Purcell lived, the people with whom he worked, the social conditions that influenced his activities, and the ways in which the modern perception of him has been affected by reception of his music after his death. In this sense the contributions do not privilege the individual over the environment: rather...
Syntagma Musicum III
Michael Praetorius (1571-1621) was one of the most versatile, wide-ranging, and prolific German composers of the seventeenth century. Also important as a theorist, his Syntagma Musicum, penned around 1619, was originally planned in four parts. He completed only three, with the first discussing the place of music in the church, while Volume II focused on musical instruments. Volume III deals with terminology, theoretical issues, and performance practice. More than any other source from this period, Volume III provides the most thorough coverage of performance practice issues of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. It offers detailed commentary about the performance of particula...
Composers' Intentions?
This book comprises selected essays concerning musical performance practice by conductor Andrew Parrott, an acknowledged expert in the field.

Bach, as well as an expanded version of a major new article from 2015. With a focus on vocal and choral music, the book covers a broad timespan (from the fourteenth to eighteenth centuries) and multifarious approaches (from extensive scholarly articles to radio broadcasts). Authoritative, provocative and readable, Parrott's writing is packed with detailed information of value to scholars, per...

Klang- und Resonanzräume
Wir sind in unserem Alltag umgeben von zahlreichen Geräuschen, auch wenn uns dies oft nicht bewusst ist. Menschen bewegen sich und agieren in Klangwelten. Klänge strukturieren dabei gesellschaftliche Räumlichkeit, wirken bewusst und unbewusst auf die Wahrnehmung und auf das Handeln der Individuen. Vor diesem Hintergrund werden häufig von verschiedensten Akteuren Geräusche sogar gezielt inszeniert und instrumentalisiert, um raumbezogene und gesellschaftliche Interessen zu verfolgen. Das Werk thematisiert die Kontroverse um inszenierte Klangräume, verdeutlicht wo und mit welchen Intentionen Geräusche gezielt produziert werden und versucht abschließend die raumbezogenen und gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen des bewussten Klangeinsatzes zu analysieren.
