Music, Authorship, and the Book in the First Century of Print
What does it mean to author a piece of music? What transforms the performance scripts written down by musicians into authored books? In this fascinating cultural history of Western musicÕs adaptation to print, Kate van Orden looks at how musical authorship first developed through the medium of printing. When music printing began in the sixteenth century, publication did not always involve the composer: printers used the names of famous composers to market books that might include little or none of their music. Publishing sacred music could be career-building for a composer, while some types of popular song proved too light to support a reputation in print, no matter how quickly they sold. Van Orden addresses the complexities that arose for music and musicians in the burgeoning cultures of print, concluding that authoring books of polyphony gained only uneven cultural traction across a century in which composers were still first and foremost performers.
Masses by Ludwig Daser and Matthaeus Le Maistre
This edition presents four parody masses from the court of Duke Albrecht V of Bavaria: Ludwig Dasers Missa Ave Maria, Missa Preter rerum seriem, and Missa Qui habitat in adjutorio; and Matthaeus Le Maistres Missa Preter rerum seriem. Each is based on a motet by Josquin des Prez (ca. 14501521), and together they shed light on the broad ongoing interest in Josquins motets across both Protestant and Catholic Europe. They also provide a bridge between Daser and Le Maistre, who served at the Bavarian ducal court in the mid-1550s, and the courts two more famous Kapellmeistern, Ludwig Senfl (ca. 14891543) and Orlandus Lassus (153294). Finallygiven that all four masses are on models ...
Identity and Locality in Early European Music, 1028–1740
This collection presents numerous discoveries and fresh insights into music and musical practices that shaped distinctly localized individual and collective identities in pre-modern and early modern Europe. Contributions by leading and emerging European music experts fall into three areas: plainchant traditions in Aquitania and the Iberian peninsula during the first 700 years of the second millennium; late medieval musical aesthetics, traditions and practices in Paris, Padua, Prague and more generally England, Germany and Spain; and local traditions in Renaissance Augsburg and Baroque Naples and Dresden. In addition to in-depth readings of anonymous musical traditions, contributors provide new details concerning the lives and music of well-known composers such as Ad r de Chabannes, Bartolino da Padova, Ciconia, Josquin, Senfl, Alessandro Scarlatti, Heinichen and Zelenka. This book will appeal to a broad range of readers, including chant scholars, medievalists, music historians, and anyone interested in music's place in pre-modern and early modern European culture.
