Polyphony In Medieval Paris : The Art of Composing With Plainchant.
Bradley, Catherine A.Cambridge Univ. Press ©2018,2020
Polyphony associated with the Parisian cathedral of Notre Dame marks a historical turning point in medieval music. Yet a lack of analytical or theoretical systems has discouraged close study of twelfth- and thirteenth-century musical objects, despite the fact that such creations represent the beginnings of musical composition as we know it. The author presents new methodologies to illuminate processes of musical and poetic creation, from monophonic plainchant and vernacular French songs, to polyphonic organa, clausulae, and motets in both Latin and French. With an introduction, bibliography, and index. Figures. Tables. Music examples.
