Plainsong in the Age of Polyphony
ISBN: 9780521106894 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From at least the eighth century and for about a thousand years the repertory of music known as Georgian chant, or plainsong, formed the largest body of written music AND was the most frequently performed and the most assiduously studied in Western civilisation. But plainsong did not follow rigid conventions. It seems increasingly clear that, whatever may have been intended with respect to uniformity and tradition, the practice of plainsong varied considerably within time and place. It is just this variation, this living quality of plainsong, that these essays address. The contributors have...

ISBN: 9781138375802 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The area whose capital was the southern Lombard city of Benevento developed a culture identified with the characteristic form of writing known as the Beneventan script, which was used throughout the area and was brought to perfection at the abbey of Montecassino in the late eleventh century. This repertory, along with other now-vanished or suppressed local varieties of music, give a far richer picture of the variety of musical practice in early medieval Europe than was formerly available.

The Beneventan Chant
ISBN: 9780521065979 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From the High Middle Ages the dominance of Gregorian chant has obscured the fact that musical practice in early medieval Europe was far richer than has hitherto been recognized. Despite its historical importance, the "Gregorian" is not the most consistent and probably not the oldest form of Christian chant. The recovery and study of regional musical dialects having a common ancestry in the Christian church and Western musical tradition are reshaping our view of the early history of Christian liturgical music. Thomas Kelly's major study of the Beneventan chant reinstates one of the oldest...

The Organ in Western Culture, 750-1250
ISBN: 9780521617079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. How did the organ become a church instrument? How did it develop from an outdoor, Mediterranean noisemaker to an instrument which has become the embodiment of western music and responsible for many of that music's characteristics? In this fascinating, investigation, Peter Williams speculates on these questions and suggests some likely answers. He considers where the organ was placed and why; what the instrument was like in 800, 1000, 1200 and 1400; what music was played, and how. He re-examines known references before 1300, covering such areas as the history of technology; music-theory art...
