Ce volume, consacré à la basse continue en Italie, couvre la première moitié du 17e siècle. Il rassemble les traités et les écrits de Cavalieri, Viadana, Agazzari, Bianciardi, Banchieri et Sabbatini.
La naissance de la basse continue donna lieu à un nombre important de publications. Les recommandations des auteurs sur la réalisation ou le chiffrage figurent souvent dans les avertissements ou préfaces à leurs recueils de pièces musicales, principalement des motets.
Cette technique va de pair avec la mise au point du récitatif et de la monodie accompagnée à Florence. Elle se répand très rapidement dans les vingt premières années du 17e siècle dans tous les pays d’Europe. Enfin, elle deviendra une méthode de composition qui durera pendant toute la période tonale.
En complément aux textes originaux et à leur traduction annotée, ce volume propose un choix de motets des auteurs principaux. Il constitue ainsi un matériel d’application et des repères stylistiques.
This book, devoted to the thorough-bass in Italy, focusses on the first years of the seventeeth century and offers the treatises and writings of Cavalieri, Viadana, Agazzari, Bianciardi, Banchieri and Sabbatini.
The beginnings of the basso continuo was followed by many publications. The composer’s advices on playing or figuring appear often in prefaces to their collections of musical pieces, mainly motets.
This technique is linked to the invention of recitative and accompanied monody in Firenze. It spreads very quickly during the first twenty years of the seventeenth century in all European countries and became shortly a method for composing during all the tonality period.
At the end of the book, we add a choice of motets. It can be used as practicing pieces or to be informed about stylistic features of this time. / Méthodes et pédagogie / Méthodes et traités / Tous instruments / LES PRESSES DU COLLEGE MUSICAL
