Fruits of the Cross: Passiontide Music Theater in Habsburg Vienna Robert L Kendrick
With this monograph on the distinctive Viennese genre of the sepolcro, Robert Kendrick has plugged a long-standing gap in our knowledge of seventeenth-century music and theatre. This repertory comprises some forty-seven rappresentazioni sacre surviving with texts and music, of about seventy performed, mainly in Vienna, between 1660 and 1711 on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday during Holy Week each year. The genre seems to owe its origin to the tas…
Loutna česká . The Czech Lute: Urtext. Adam Michna z Otradovic. Compositiones, 14. Ed. Petr Daněk, Adam Viktora, and Tereza Daňková
Of seventeenth-century Czech composers, Adam Michna z Otradovic is generally reckoned today ‘the most prolific, distinctive, and important’, as John Tyrrell put it in a recent review (Music & Letters, 98 (2017), 477–8), even though Michna spent his entire career in relative obscurity as an organist in the provincial Bohemian town of Jindřichův Hradec (Neuhaus) and much of his output is now lost. Even those of his works that have survived have bee…

The Enchanting Music of Blades And Bullets: Visions of Violence in Janáček’s World-War Symphonic Poems
Two of Janáček’s symphonic poems commemorate the First World War, Taras Bulba and the Balada blanická. It has not hitherto been appreciated that their free form and final apotheoses probably represent Janáček’s reimagining of Liszt’s symphonic poems, which are the focus of a modernist manifesto for Czech music (1913) by Václav Štěpán. Moreover, the contrast between the two disguises an essential link. The main intertexts of Taras Bulba seem to be…

The Perfections of Modern Music: Consecutive Fifths and Tonal Coherence in Monteverdi
According to Carl Dahlhaus,* Monteverdi is able to lay claim to the chord that is the most famous in Western music after the Tristan chord.' This is the socalled 'unprepared dominant seventh' that occurs within a few bars of the beginning of Monteverdi's best-known madrigal, 'Cruda Amarilli', from his Fifth Book of 1605 (Ex. la, b. 13). If this chord has indeed managed to defeat the rival claims of other famous chords Schoenberg's or Scriabin's, …

The Spice of Music: Towards a Theory of the Leading Note
In an influential article first published in 1959 Allen Forte took up the question of the initial stepwise ascent to the first structural note of the Schenkerian fundamental line (Urlinie) and argued that a sharpened fourth degree is a necessary condition for the establishment of S as the first note of the descent in the major mode.1 His discussion offers a useful point of departure from which to develop some arguments concerning aspects of inter…

The Platonic Agenda of Monteverdi's Seconda Pratica: A Case Study from the Eighth Book of Madrigals
Monteverdi's late works have often seemed difficult. As early as the madrigals of Book V, the elegant ease of the madrigals of Books III and IV, which are generally placed at the centre of the Monteverdi canon, may seem to have been jettisoned in favour of an over-ascetic, rationalist aesthetics. And commentators often find the compositions in Book VIII (1638) puzzlingly fragmented. This is particularly true of the 'warlike' pieces featuring what…
