The longest setting also happens to be the first, the St. Matthew Passion of 1769, the music of which was later incorporated into his Passions-Cantate Wq 233. Even this first Passion uses chorales from Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. Matthew Passion, and all twenty-one Passions are pasticcios to a greater or lesser extent. The earlier settings mostly incorporate music by other composers, including Georg Philipp Telemann, Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel, Georg Anton Benda, and Gottfried August Homilius, often using parody texts for the arias. But in his second decade, Bach more frequently adapted his own songs as choruses or arias, and in his last settings he wrote almost entirely new music. This article traces the evolution of his St. John Passion settings from his first setting in 1772 through his last in 1788.","PeriodicalId":42367,"journal":{"name":"BACH","volume":"33 4","pages":"46 - 61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41269753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Positioning The Pathetick Musician (2016) between contemporary meta-treatises, such as Judith Tarling’s Weapons of Rhetoric (2004) and Nikolaus Harnoncourt’s Baroque Music Today ([1982] 1988), and historical tutors by Johann Joachim Quantz (1752) and C. P. E. Bach ([1753] 1787), Haynes recorded “his own ideas of what is good musicking, based on a healthy respect for the performing traditions described in [the above] books as well as [his] ... experience as a professional performing musician” (xxiv).1 Haynes’s recent death left the manuscript only partially realized, making the (re) construction of The Pathetick Musician by Burgess as much a revival as it is a study for Bach revivalists. The Pathetick Musician fills two gaps in early music performance studies. It provides a practical method for identifying and employing specific seventeenthand eighteenth-century rhetorical devices, as heard in selected recordings of the vocal works of J. S. Bach (as well as other composers). At the same time, it grants readers a tantalizing glimpse of the inner musicality of a compelling early music pioneer—whose intellectual prowess, distinct style, and rebellious attitude embodied the efforts of a once groundbreaking but now mainstream movement. As more early music pioneers like Haynes pass away and the so-called oldschool elements of the movement supposedly fade, books such as this one","PeriodicalId":42367,"journal":{"name":"BACH","volume":"49 1","pages":"425 - 428"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49440585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This essay uses the first variation, which consists of a single melodic line with no other voices, as a cantus firmus for a progressive series of projects in composition or improvisation, suitable for an undergraduate course in eighteenth-century counterpoint. The first two projects provide a transition from previous work students may have done in strict species counterpoint in the Fux tradition. In project 1 they add a counterpoint entirely in eighth notes below the cantus firmus, while in project 2 they add a counterpoint in sixteenth notes. Project 3 is intended to sound more like “real” music, requiring students to add two voices in free rhythms beneath the given melody. This encourages them to maximize the expressive use of dissonance while achieving rhythmic fluency and melodic independence in a three-part texture. Since much of the pedagogy of counterpoint in Western music has depended on an oral tradition, this approach tries to fill in gaps in the oral record by guiding students and teachers through all the steps of planning and execution involved in completing these projects.
