Book Description
Organ Literature of the Seventeenth Century
Author: John R. Shannon
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
"The seventeenth is the greatest of all centuries for the organ and for its literature. Never before or since has this instrument served as such an important medium of musical composition. Such composers as Frescobaldi, Cabanilles, De Grigny, the Couperins, Sweelinck, Scheidemann, Scheidt, Bruhns, Buxtehude, Froberger, and Pachelbel regarded it as their principal outlet for creative expression. In this study, the author first traces the origins of seventeenth-century styles in the keyboard music of the late Renaissance; he then devotes individual chapters to each of the important geographical styles of seventeenth-century organ music. The book's point of orientation is the manner in which each of these styles develops its own unique vocabulary and set of compositional techniques. The text is illustrated by some two hundred musical examples carefully selected to demonstrate each stylistic development. The volume concludes with a selected and annotated bibliography of readily available performances of the entire repertory." --Dust jacket.

Faber Early Organ
Author: James Dalton
Publisher: Faber & Faber
ISBN: 9780571507719
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 39
Book Description
The Faber Early Organ Series is among the most comprehensive anthologies of early organ music ever published. In 18 volumes it spans two centuries and six geographical regions, presenting a broad and balanced view of the main forms, styles and composers. Within each geographical region the pieces, most of which are for manuals only, are arranged by date of composition or publication. The presentation is both scholarly and practical; all of the music has been newly edited from the earliest surviving sources according to a systematic editorial method that preserves as many features of the original notation as possible while making it fully accessible to modern players. In every volume, an informative Introduction sets the music in historical context. There are also helpful sections on Ornamentation and Registration, and a Critical Commentary giving detailed information on the sources.
