MUH 3211 - Music History I “Music in the 14th Century” 11/21/2018 Chapter 3 “Music in the 14th Century” DAY 11 (29 Sep 17)

The “Ars Nova” Increasing rhythmic complexity after 1300 - use of smallest values (minum and semiminum) - use of duple meters and divisions Philippe de Vitry (1291-1361) - Ars nova (c. 1320) Johannes de Muris (c. 1300-1350) - Ars novae musicae (c. 1320) New style criticized by Pope John XXII, et al. Ars Nova = post-1300 Ars Antiqua = pre-1300, esp. Notre Dame

Le Roman de Fauvel (c. 1316) Gervais de Bus, author Allegory on corruption - both secular and religious Fauvel (horse/ass) - acronym for vices Ascends to throne - lives in royal house -attended by humans Fortuna (fate) allows marriage to Vainglory Gives birth to more Fauvels (Anti-Christs!)

Philippe de Vitry (1291-1361) French courtier/musician Multi-talented MUH 3211 - Music History I Philippe de Vitry (1291-1361) 11/21/2018 French courtier/musician Multi-talented Ars nova treatise (1320) Le Roman de Fauvel Use of Isorhythm (see next slide) Many Motets (but…) …uncertain authorship DAY 11 (29 Sep 17)

Isorhythm 14th-c organizing principal for rhythm Imposed on chant/non-rhythmicized melodies Talea (“segment”/“cut”) = rhythm pattern Color = pitches Ex. Garrit gallus / In nova fert / [Neuma] (Anthology I/18) Talea & color in tenor

Guillaume de Machaut (c. 1300-1377) Most famous 14th-c musician Poet-chronicler at French court Sacred and secular music Formes fixes (secular) 1st 4vv polyphonic Mass 6 MSS of own music Machaut meets “nature” and three of her children

Messe de Nostre Dame Composed by Machaut, c. 1360 First complete polyphonic setting of Mass ordinary by a single composer 4vv (!) – rare through the 14th C Contratenor – below the tenor (chant) Use of Isorhythm to organize Machaut, Messe de Notre Dame, "Kyrie" (Anthology I/19) Orlando Consort talks about Machaut

Machaut’s Secular Music Love songs in troubadour/trouvere tradition Use of formes fixes – standard textual patterns - Ballade - Virelai - Rondeau Exs. Anthology I/20 & 22 "Je puis trop bien ma dame comparer" "Ma fin est mon commencement"

Ars subtilior “the more subtle art” Late 14th century (c. 1375-1400+) France, esp., south (Avignon Popes) Secular songs (nothing sacred) deliberately complex rhythms, etc. Notational tricks (visual and other) Use of colored inks Canons (based on verbal puzzles, etc.)
