Description

The first part of the two-semester lecture series focuses on the historical development of church music from the first beginnings of traditional polyphonic music to the end of the 17th century (Heinrich Schütz). Specifics of the respective current genres are presented and/or developed by analyzing selected compositions, whereby (music) theoretical writings play an appropriate role as a primary source of contemporary reflection. At the same time, it will be possible to clarify why certain compositional techniques and forms became established nationally as trendsetting, while others were increasingly regarded as obsolete.
