  • Answer in your journal using sentences. You
    might have to guess thats okay!
  • Where do you think music came from? When do you
    think it was started? What type (s) of music do
    you think were first performed and notated?

2
Overview of Music History
3
Middle Ages / Medieval
  • 450 1450
  • Sacred Music
  • Mostly vocal music until 1100
  • After 1100, the church allowed instruments to be
    played.
  • The organ was the most popular then.
  • Most notated music was sacred
  • Why? The church had control over learning.
  • Most composers were anonymous because they were
    taught that it was wrong to take credit and brag
    about their works. They were taught that God
    would be unhappy with them.

4
Middle Ages / Medieval
  • 450 1450
  • Secular music non-religious
  • Troubadours traveled the country, singing their
    love songs.
  • They used drums, bagpipes, harps, and recorders.
  • Why do you think they didnt notate their music?

5
Quick Question
  • What makes Sacred music different from Secular
    music?
  • Which was more likely to be notated?

6
Middle Ages / Medieval
  • Gregorian Chant The earliest music of the Middle
    Ages was sung slowly and without rhythm or
    harmony. Everyone sang the same thing.
  • These tunes are also called Gregorian Chant,
    which were named after Pope Gregory I.

7

8
Middle Ages / Medieval
  • Polyphony Later on other musical lines were
    added, creating harmony. This is also called
    polyphonic music.
  • This is music for more than one voice and it
    appeared during the later Medieval period. This
    marked the beginning of harmony.

9
  • What was the earliest music of the Middle Ages?
  • What kind of music appeared later in the Middle
    Ages? What did it have that made it different?

10
Ballad
  • Ballads were sung outside of churches and told
    stories.
  • Topics included love, war, and heroes.
  • Every other line rhymes within a verse ABAB
  • Verse One Verse Two
  • .. A .C
  • .. B .D
  • . A .C
  • . B .D

11
Medieval Listening Example
  • Graduale
  • By Anonymous
  • Include title, composer, and three musical ideas
    using sentences in your journal. Dont forget
    your introduction and conclusion.
  • Just fyi the gradual is a responsorial chant
    and is the only type, other than the Alleluia,
    that is sung without an any action, such as a
    processional. It comes in between readings.

12
Graduale
  • Graduale is a peaceful song. It was a Gregorian
    Chant. It doesnt have any instruments playing
    with it. This song is religious. The color of
    this song is orange, because it is mellow.

13
Creating MusicCompose your own Ballad!
14
Creating Music
  • At a keyboard, create a short song, around 30
    seconds.
  • Notate the song as they might have during the
    Medieval Period.

    notation like we do today.
  • They also did not have a piano then.

Renaissance
  • Renaissance means rebirth- in this case, it was
    a rebirth of Greek and Roman culture.
  • It lasted from 1450-1600.
  • The middle and upper classes hired people to
    educate their children.
  • The printing press was invented and popularized
    the music of great composers.

20
Renaissance Music
  • Most Renaissance music is polyphonic two or
    more voices being heard with different rhythms.
  • Near the end of the Renaissance, chordal music
    appeared. The voices moved together in chords.

21
Here are some questions
  • What does Renaissance mean?
  • What was invented that popularized the music of
    great composers?
  • What does it mean for music to be polyphonic in
    the Renaissance time period?

22
Vocal A Capella Music
  • Madrigals - These song forms were performed in
    groups of four, five, or six singers. A madrigal
    is secular music and were usually love songs.
  • Motets - a polyphonic work with four or five
    voice parts singing one religious Latin text.
  • Mass - follows the religious service of the
    Catholic Church and is sung in a very specific
    order Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus,
    Benedictus, and Agnus Dei. It is performed in
    Latin.

23
Instrumental Music
  • There was a growth in instrumental music,
    especially the lute and keyboard. The most
    popular instrument of the Renaissance was the
    lute.
  • Most instrumental music was written for singing
    and dancing.

24
Lets answer these.

    Which one follows the religious service of the
    Catholic Church?

    Renaissance time period?

25
  • Palestrinas music shows pitch and rhythm.
  • He was Italian and wrote mostly religious works.

    Renaissance music.
  • He wrote motets, madrigals, and masses.

26
Renaissance Listening Example
  • Kyrie
  • By Palestrina
  • P. 174 in 8th grade text

27
Lets Create Some Music!
  • Creating a group composition in the Renaissance
    Polyphonic style.
  • Each table will be a group. The bigger tables may
    split up into two and three if they would like.
  • Each person in the group will compose two
    measures of rhythms in four.
  • Practice it quietly all together and then we will
    perform them for the class.

28
8th Grade Do Now, May 5

  • 2. When two or more voices are singing different
    rhythms, what is that called? Kyrie was an
    example of this.
