TH€
BAROQUE
€RA
Perhaps the most curious thing about Baroque music is that it's notai al! "baroque."
The term Baroque was coined from the Portugese barroco meaning deformed or
irregular and was originally a disparaging reference to theasymmetrical ornamentation
of 17th century architecture. Eventually the term embraced all art forms of the 17th
and early 18th centuries and so music of the utmost regularity and formai perfection
came to be called Baroque_!
The age of the Baroque begins around 1600 and ends shortly after the death of J.
S. Bach in 1750. As the curtain ri ses on this span of approximately 150 years, ail power
in Europe resides in the Catholic church and the aristocracy. As the curtain falls,
Protestantism has successfully challenged the supremacy of Catholicism and the French
and American revolutions signal the end of aristocratie power.
These upheavals were accompanied by great changes in the culture of Western
Europe. New scientific ideas flowed from the minds of Galileo, Newton and Kepler;
new architecture from Bernini and Borromini; new intellectual modes from Descartes,
Spinoza and Milton; heightened expressiveq_ess in painting from Rubens, Vermeer,
Caravaggio and Rembrandt and new concepts of sound in music from an impressive
list of composers such as Monteverdi, Purcell, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Couperin, Telemann,
Handel and Bach to name but a few.
The predominant musical influence of this period stems initially from ltaly but by
the middle of,the 18th century, the various nations had assimilated the ltalian influence
and asserted their individual characteristics. Of the more notable achievements of
Baroque music, perhaps the elevation of purely instrumental music to an independent
status is the one most strongly tell today. Other achievements of significance are the
birth of opera (which has spawned such diverse forms as the modern symphony and
the pop song), the harmonie and tonal system upon which ail our music since then has
been based and the development of national styles.
Although it's true that no music is ever played exact/y as it is written, the music of
this period g rants the player the g reatest freedom in departi ng from the written music.
This departure is manifested in a number of ways, the most important being orna-
mentation, dynamics, tempo and rhythmic alteration (a detailed explanation of last
• 5
named elements is beyond the scope of this book and the reader is enc ouraged to
refer to Dolmetsch as listed in the bibliograpy).
The ornamentation of certain notes (essentially the main or principal ones and
cadential notes) was considered obligatory. C. P. E. Bach wrote, "lt is not likely that
anybody could question the necessity of ornaments. They are not only useful, but
indispensable. They connect the notes; theY, give them lite." The three most common
ornaments are the trill (tr.). the mord ent ( 1" ) and the inverted mordent ( ,w ).
The tri// is begun on the note one scale step (whole or hait) above the wri tten
(principal) note which is indicated in this edition by the grace note tied to the principal
note. The rhythmic outline of the eritire figu re appears above it in parentheses. This
parenthetical figure appears here for the student's aid but doe~ not normally appear in
Baroque notation. (Ex. 1a). The number of alternations employed will depend on the
duration of the note and the tempo. At slow tempi the ornamental note is held b riefly,
then allowed to fal l to the principal note at which lime the alternations begin slowly,
gradually becoming more rapid. Qûite often the trill will conta in an e xtra note for more
elaborate effect (Ex. 1b).

c0)) The incredible marriage of unearthly naiveté and worldly sophistication is perhaps
the most endearing quality of the music of the Classical period. lts innocent spirit,
projected through worldly artfulness, is nowhere more perfectly manifested than iri
the music of Mozart. ln tact, that other master of the age, Josef Haydn, was moved to
say that if music lovers cou Id understand Mozart's music the way he himself did, "nations
would vie with one another to possess such a treasure within their walls."
This périod, beginning about 1750 (with the death of J.S. Bach) and ending about
1827 (with the death of Beethoven), derives its name !rom the renewed interest in
Greek (Classical) architecture and its.elegant display of rigorously controlled form. ln
a similar manner, the qualities of clarity, grace and restraint characterize the music of
Haydn, Mozart and early Beethoven and their guitarist counterparts Fernando Sor
and Mauro Giuliani. Here, as in the Baroque, the style originated in ltaly but was
brought toits zenith in Germany.
Toward the middle of the 18th century, Baroque counterpoint gave way to more
singable (cantabile} melodies supported by harmonie textures of the utmost clarity.
No longer was the music heavily ornamented by the player and only a few of the
• l7
ornaments such as the trill and the mordent were reta ined as symbols. The
ornamentation itself did notdisappear but ratherbecame an integral part of the melody.
Ex. 3 shows how bar no. 11 of Mozarts Andante ( K. 545) would appear had it been:
written by a Baroque composer.

A true expression of this music will be achieved by playing gracefully while striving
for a sense of charm and wit. The tempo ought to be held fairly steady using rubato<
judiciously and infrequently. Dynarnics (p, f, cresc, decresc.) play a very important"
role but must serve to underscore the formai balance. ln other words, dynarnics are
not simply sprinkled randomly, but rather are used so as to bring out the architecture
of the music.
For a more cornplete experience of the Classical spirit one rnight investigate the
marvelously precise drawingsand paintings of Jacques-louis David and Jean-Auguste
Ingres and the architecture of Thomas Jefferson.

No longer was the music heavily ornarnented by the player and only a few of the
•
intense persona! expression employed to capture and describe every imaginable
emotional state. One of the first to explore these hitherto uncharted regions was the
great Spanish painter Francisco de Goya. He greatly influenced the artist who most
perfectly typifies the romantic spirit, Eugene Delacroix, whose sweeping canvasses
are extravagent symphonies of col or. Of no less grandeur were the highly imaginative
flights of such poets as Hugo, Goethe, Lord Byron and the aforementioned Baudelaire.
Although Romantics such as Richard Strauss and Sergei Rachmaninoff lived into
the 1940's, the movement had burned itself out by the beginning of the 20th century.
Nevertheless, its powerful spirit lives on via recordingsand the concert hall where the
larger portion of most programs are drawn from'the Romantic repertoire.
A convincing performance of this music will be characterized by a careful molding
of the melody, a flexible g ive and take in tempo (tempo rubato) and a compassionate
rendering of ils musical and emotional ''meaning." ·

TH€
TW€MTl€TH
CENTURY
ln the 1890's a departure from the harmonie practice of five centuries occurred
which marked a major turning point in the evolution of modern music. One composer
largely responsible for this revolutionary gesture was Claude Debussy. ln his use of
freely shifting harmonies and organically developed forms, we lind the seeds of the
~
modern approach. At the same tirne (late 1800's, early 1900's) enormous changes
were being wrought upon the visual arts by Van Gogh, Cezanne, Monet and Picasso.
And white Ezra Pound and James Joyce were giving voice to the modern sensibility in
poetry and prose, Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein were challenging our concepts
•
40
of human psychology and our understanding of time and space.
To give the music of a modern composer, say Ravel, its proper inflection, one
r:--
must acquaint oneself with all the music of Ravel. Only in this way cana thorough
understanding of his musical character be developed. Unfortunately, there is little else
to be said about performance style in the 20th century. However, what can't be said
can be heard si nce there exist both recordings and live performances of the works of
early 20th century composers. 1n many cases the performers may have special insight
as to style owing to acquaintance with the composer himself. Such is the case with the TW:HTl€TH
pianist Robert Casadesus, friend and compatriot of Maurice Ravel. Casadesus has
recorded the Pavane included in this collectioh.

PETER GREENWOOD
Of his early years with the guitar Peter Greenwood says, "I
began playing when I was 16 years old. 1 had a $12.00 'Stella' with
strings so high off the fingerboard a steam roller couldn 't have
pushed 'em down. My idol was Chet Atkins. Severa! years later 1
heard Andres Segovia and my fate was sealed!" He studied, taught
and performed in New York City from 1960 to 1971 when he moved
to Freedom, Maine where he and his wife Elaine built their home.
He began editorial work in the musical publishing field in 1970
and his own anthol,ogy, Pieces for C/assicaf Guitar was released in
1972. Peter currently performs throughout Maine as soloist, and
with Jean Rosenblum, as a member of the flute and guitar duo,
Rosewood. The guitar he plays on the recording was designed and
built for him by Thomas Humphrey of New York City.

Perhaps the mostcurious thing about Baroque music is that it's not at al! "baroque."
The term Baroque was coined from the Portugese barroco meaning deformed or
irregular and was originally a disparaging reference to the asymmetrical ornamentation
of 17th century architecture. Eventuaily the term embraced ail art forms of the 17th
and early 18th centuries and so music of the utmost regularity and formai perfection
came to be cailed Baroque!
The age of the Baroque begins around 1600 and ends shortly after the death of J.
S. Bach in 1750. As the curtain rises on this span of approximately 150 years, ail power
in Europe resides in the Catholic church and the aristocracy. As the curtain falls,
Protestantism has successfully chailenged the supremacy of Catholicism and the French
and American revolutions signal the end of aristocratie power.
These upheavals were accompanied by great changes in the culture of Western
Europe. New scientific ideas flowed from the mincis of Galileo, Newton and Kepler;
new architectùre from Bernini and Borromini; new intellectual modes from Descartes,
Spinoza and Milton; heightened expressiveness in painting from Rubens, Vermeer,
Caravaggio and Rembrandt and new concepts of sound in music from an impressive
list of composers such as Monteverdi, Purcell, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Couperin, Telemann,
Handel and Bach to name but a few.
The predominant musical influence of this period stems initially from ltaly but by
the middle of the 18th century, the various nations had assimilated the ltalian influence
and asserteçl their individual characteristics. Of the more notable achievements of
Baroque music, perhaps the elevation of purely instrumental music to an inde pendent
status is the one most strongly felt today. Other achievements of significance are the
birth of opera (which has spawned such diverse forms as the modern symphony and
the pop song), the harmonie and tonal system upon which ail our music sincethen has
been based and the development of national styles.
Although it's true thàt no music is ever played exact/y as it is written, the music of
this period grants the player the greatest freedom in departing from the written music.
This departure is manifested in a number of ways, the most important being orna-
mentation, dynamics, tempo and rhythmic alteration (a detailed explanation of last
l 5
1
•
,.i
named elements is beyond the scope of this book and the reader is encouraged to
refer to Dotmetsch as listed in the bibliograpy).
The ornamentation of certain notes (essentially the main or principal ones and
cadential notes) was considered obligatory. C. P. E. Bach wrote, '"lt is not likely that
anybody could question the necessity of ornaments. They are not only useful , but
indispensable. They connect the notes; theY. give them lite.'" The three most common
ornaments are the trill (tr.). the mordent ( "fV ) and the inverted mordent ( M' ).
The tri// is begun on the note one scale ste'p (whole or half) above the written
(principal) note which is indicated in this edition by the grace note tied to the principal
note. The rhythmic outline of the entire figure appears above it in parentheses. This
parenthetical figure appears here for the student's aid but doe~ not normally appear in
Baroque notation. (Ex. 1a). The number of alternations ernployed will depend on the
duration of the note and the tempo. At slow tempi the ornamental note is held briefly,
then allowed to fall to the principal note at which time the alternations begin slowly,
gradually becoming more rapid. Quite often the tri li will conta in an extra note for more
elaborate ettect (Ex. 1b ). ])) (J>J

The mordent is a rapid alternation from the written note to the note one scale step

(01) The incredible n1arriage of unearthly naïveté and worldly sophistication is perhaps
the most endearing quality of the music of the Classical period. lts innocent spirit,
projected through worldly artfulness, is nowhere more perfectly manifested than in
the music of Mozart. ln tact. that other master of the age, Josef Haydn, was moved to
say that if music lovers couId understand Mozart's music the way he himself did, "nations
would vie with one another fo possess such a treasure within their walls."
This period, beginning about 1750 (with the death of J.S. Bach) and ending about
1827 (wlth the death of Beethoven), de rives its name from the renewed interest in
Greek (Classical) architecture and its elegant display of rigorouslycontrolled form. ln
a similar manner, the qualities of clarity, grace and restraintcharacterize the music of
Haydn, Mozart and early Beethoven and their guitarist counterparts Fernando Sor
and Mauro Giuliani. Here, as ln the Baroque, the style originated in ltaly but was
brought to its zenith in Germany.
Toward the middle of the 18th century, Baroque counterpoint gave way to more
singable (cantabile) melodies supported by harmonie textures of the utmost clarity.
No longer was the music heavily ornamented by the player and only a few of the
•
14
ornaments such as the tri ll and the mordent were re tained as symbols. The
ornamentation itself did not disappear but rather became an integral part of the melody.
Ex. 3 shows how bar no. 11 of Mozarts Andante ( K. 545) would appear had it been
written by a Baroque composer.

,Baroque (written)
A true expression of t his music w ill be achieved by playing gracefully while striving
for a sense of c harm and w it . The tempo ought to be held fairly steady using rubato
judiciously and infrequently. Dynamics (p, f, cresc, decresc.) play a very important
role but must serve to underscore the formai balance. ln other words, dynamics are
not simply sprinkled randomly, but rather are used so as to bring out the architecture
of the music.
For a more complete experience of the Classical spirit one might investigate the
marvelously precise drawings and paintings of.Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste
Ingres and the architecture of Thomas Jefferson.

intense persona! expression employed to capture and describe every imaginable
emotional state. One of the first to explore these hitnerto uncharted reg ions was the
great Spanish painter Francisco de Goya. He greatly influenced the artist who most
perfectly typifies the romantic spirit, Eugene Delacroix, whose sweeping canvasses
are extravagent symphonies of col or. Of no Iess grandeurwere the highly imaginative
flights of such poetsas Hugo, Goethe, Lord Byron and the aforementioned Baudelaire.
Although Romantics such as Richard Strauss and Sergei Rachmaninoff lived into
the 1940's, the movernent had burned itself out by the beginning of the 20th century.
Nevertheless, its powerful spirit lives on via recordings and the concert hall where the
larger portion of most programs are drawn from the Romantic repertoire.
A convincing performance of this mu::;ic will be characterized by a careful molding
of the melody, a flexible give and take in tempo /tempo rubato) and a compassionate
rendering of its musical and emotional "meaning _"

TWENTIETH
CENTURY
If one were to listen to a number of Minuets by Haydn, Mozart, Bach 's sons, Clementi
and Beethoven one after another, it would be immediately apparent that, while individual
i n character i n many ways, there are ma~y similarities which create a feeling of
"sameness" arn ong them. A repetition of this experiment using pieces by Debussy,
Stravinsky, Bartok, Ives, Shoenberg, Prokofiev and Ravel would c reate quite the
opposite impression. We now have a stylistic diversity from one composer to thr next
which isat once veryexciting and highlyconfusing. The pursuitof individuality, begun
in earnest by the Romantics, has continued unabated to this day and is one of the
trademarks of modern art.
ln the 1890's a departure from the harmonie practice of live centuries occurred
which marked a major turning point in the evolution of modern music. One c omposer
largely responsible for this revolutionary gesture was Claude Debussy. ln his use of
~
freely shifting harmonies and organically developed forms, we find the seeds of the
modern approach. At the sarne time (late 1BO0's, early 1900's) enormous changes
were being wrought upon the visual arts by Van Gogh, Cezanne, Monet and Picasso.
And while Ezra Pound and James Joyce were giving voice to the modern sensibility in
poetry and prose, Sigmund Freud ana Albert Einstein were challenging ourconcepts
•
of human psychology and our understanding of time and space.
To give the music of a modern composer, say Ravel, its proper inflection, one
r--
must acquaint oneself with all the music of Ravel. Only in this way cana thorough
understanding of his musical character be developed. Unfortunately, there is l[ttle else
to be said about performance style in the 20th century. However, what can·t be said
can be heard since there exist both recordings and live performances of the works of
early 20thcenturycomposers. ln manycases the performers may have special insight
as to style owing to acquaintance with the composer himself. Such is the case with the TWEMT1€TH
pianist Robert Casadesus, friend and compatriot of Maurice Ravel. Casadesus has
recorded the Pavane included in this collectioh.

BAROQUE
€RA
Perhaps the most curious thing about Baroque music is that it's notai al! "baroque."
The term Baroque was coined from the Portugese barroco meaning deformed or
irregular and was originally a disparaging reference to theasymmetrical ornamentation
of 17th century architecture. Eventually the term embraced all art forms of the 17th
and early 18th centuries and so music of the utmost regularity and formai perfection
came to be called Baroque_!
The age of the Baroque begins around 1600 and ends shortly after the death of J.
S. Bach in 1750. As the curtain ri ses on this span of approximately 150 years, ail power
in Europe resides in the Catholic church and the aristocracy. As the curtain falls,
Protestantism has successfully challenged the supremacy of Catholicism and the French
and American revolutions signal the end of aristocratie power.
These upheavals were accompanied by great changes in the culture of Western
Europe. New scientific ideas flowed from the minds of Galileo, Newton and Kepler;
new architecture from Bernini and Borromini; new intellectual modes from Descartes,
Spinoza and Milton; heightened expressiveq_ess in painting from Rubens, Vermeer,
Caravaggio and Rembrandt and new concepts of sound in music from an impressive
list of composers such as Monteverdi, Purcell, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Couperin, Telemann,
Handel and Bach to name but a few.
The predominant musical influence of this period stems initially from ltaly but by
the middle of,the 18th century, the various nations had assimilated the ltalian influence
and asserted their individual characteristics. Of the more notable achievements of
Baroque music, perhaps the elevation of purely instrumental music to an independent
status is the one most strongly tell today. Other achievements of significance are the
birth of opera (which has spawned such diverse forms as the modern symphony and
the pop song), the harmonie and tonal system upon which ail our music since then has
been based and the development of national styles.
Although it's true that no music is ever played exact/y as it is written, the music of
this period g rants the player the g reatest freedom in departi ng from the written music.
This departure is manifested in a number of ways, the most important being orna-
mentation, dynamics, tempo and rhythmic alteration (a detailed explanation of last
• 5
named elements is beyond the scope of this book and the reader is enc ouraged to
refer to Dolmetsch as listed in the bibliograpy).
The ornamentation of certain notes (essentially the main or principal ones and
cadential notes) was considered obligatory. C. P. E. Bach wrote, "lt is not likely that
anybody could question the necessity of ornaments. They are not only useful, but
indispensable. They connect the notes; theY, give them lite." The three most common
ornaments are the trill (tr.). the mord ent ( 1" ) and the inverted mordent ( ,w ).
The tri// is begun on the note one scale step (whole or hait) above the wri tten
(principal) note which is indicated in this edition by the grace note tied to the principal
note. The rhythmic outline of the eritire figu re appears above it in parentheses. This
parenthetical figure appears here for the student's aid but doe~ not normally appear in
Baroque notation. (Ex. 1a). The number of alternations employed will depend on the
duration of the note and the tempo. At slow tempi the ornamental note is held b riefly,
then allowed to fal l to the principal note at which lime the alternations begin slowly,
gradually becoming more rapid. Qûite often the trill will conta in an e xtra note for more
elaborate effect (Ex. 1b).

_The mordent is a rapid alternation from the written note to the note one scale step
1
below (hall or whole) and back to the written note (Ex. 2a). When the decorative note
is other than would ordinarily appear in the scale (as in modulations or minor keys) the
necessary accidentai appears above the symbol (Ex. 2b).

THE
CLASSICAL
d €RA

c0))
c0)) The incredible marriage of unearthly naiveté and worldly sophistication is perhaps
the most endearing quality of the music of the Classical period. lts innocent spirit,
projected through worldly artfulness, is nowhere more perfectly manifested than iri
the music of Mozart. ln tact, that other master of the age, Josef Haydn, was moved to
say that if music lovers cou Id understand Mozart's music the way he himself did, "nations
would vie with one another to possess such a treasure within their walls."
This périod, beginning about 1750 (with the death of J.S. Bach) and ending about
1827 (with the death of Beethoven), derives its name !rom the renewed interest in
Greek (Classical) architecture and its.elegant display of rigorously controlled form. ln
a similar manner, the qualities of clarity, grace and restraint characterize the music of
Haydn, Mozart and early Beethoven and their guitarist counterparts Fernando Sor
and Mauro Giuliani. Here, as in the Baroque, the style originated in ltaly but was
brought toits zenith in Germany.
Toward the middle of the 18th century, Baroque counterpoint gave way to more
singable (cantabile} melodies supported by harmonie textures of the utmost clarity.
No longer was the music heavily ornamented by the player and only a few of the
• l7
ornaments such as the trill and the mordent were reta ined as symbols. The
ornamentation itself did notdisappear but ratherbecame an integral part of the melody.
Ex. 3 shows how bar no. 11 of Mozarts Andante ( K. 545) would appear had it been:
written by a Baroque composer.

A true expression of this music will be achieved by playing gracefully while striving
for a sense of charm and wit. The tempo ought to be held fairly steady using rubato<
judiciously and infrequently. Dynarnics (p, f, cresc, decresc.) play a very important"
role but must serve to underscore the formai balance. ln other words, dynarnics are
not simply sprinkled randomly, but rather are used so as to bring out the architecture
of the music.
For a more cornplete experience of the Classical spirit one rnight investigate the
marvelously precise drawingsand paintings of Jacques-louis David and Jean-Auguste
Ingres and the architecture of Thomas Jefferson.

TH€
TW€MTl€TH
CENTURY
ln the 1890's a departure from the harmonie practice of five centuries occurred
which marked a major turning point in the evolution of modern music. One composer
largely responsible for this revolutionary gesture was Claude Debussy. ln his use of
freely shifting harmonies and organically developed forms, we lind the seeds of the
~
modern approach. At the same tirne (late 1800's, early 1900's) enormous changes
were being wrought upon the visual arts by Van Gogh, Cezanne, Monet and Picasso.
And white Ezra Pound and James Joyce were giving voice to the modern sensibility in
poetry and prose, Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein were challenging our concepts
•
40
of human psychology and our understanding of time and space.
To give the music of a modern composer, say Ravel, its proper inflection, one
r:--
must acquaint oneself with all the music of Ravel. Only in this way cana thorough
understanding of his musical character be developed. Unfortunately, there is little else
to be said about performance style in the 20th century. However, what can't be said
can be heard si nce there exist both recordings and live performances of the works of
early 20th century composers. 1n many cases the performers may have special insight
as to style owing to acquaintance with the composer himself. Such is the case with the TW:HTl€TH
pianist Robert Casadesus, friend and compatriot of Maurice Ravel. Casadesus has
recorded the Pavane included in this collectioh.

PETER GREENWOOD
Of his early years with the guitar Peter Greenwood says, "I
began playing when I was 16 years old. 1 had a $12.00 'Stella' with
strings so high off the fingerboard a steam roller couldn 't have
pushed 'em down. My idol was Chet Atkins. Severa! years later 1
heard Andres Segovia and my fate was sealed!" He studied, taught
and performed in New York City from 1960 to 1971 when he moved
to Freedom, Maine where he and his wife Elaine built their home.
He began editorial work in the musical publishing field in 1970
and his own anthol,ogy, Pieces for C/assicaf Guitar was released in
1972. Peter currently performs throughout Maine as soloist, and
with Jean Rosenblum, as a member of the flute and guitar duo,
Rosewood. The guitar he plays on the recording was designed and
built for him by Thomas Humphrey of New York City.

Perhaps the mostcurious thing about Baroque music is that it's not at al! "baroque."
The term Baroque was coined from the Portugese barroco meaning deformed or
irregular and was originally a disparaging reference to the asymmetrical ornamentation
of 17th century architecture. Eventuaily the term embraced ail art forms of the 17th
and early 18th centuries and so music of the utmost regularity and formai perfection
came to be cailed Baroque!
The age of the Baroque begins around 1600 and ends shortly after the death of J.
S. Bach in 1750. As the curtain rises on this span of approximately 150 years, ail power
in Europe resides in the Catholic church and the aristocracy. As the curtain falls,
Protestantism has successfully chailenged the supremacy of Catholicism and the French
and American revolutions signal the end of aristocratie power.
These upheavals were accompanied by great changes in the culture of Western
Europe. New scientific ideas flowed from the mincis of Galileo, Newton and Kepler;
new architectùre from Bernini and Borromini; new intellectual modes from Descartes,
Spinoza and Milton; heightened expressiveness in painting from Rubens, Vermeer,
Caravaggio and Rembrandt and new concepts of sound in music from an impressive
list of composers such as Monteverdi, Purcell, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Couperin, Telemann,
Handel and Bach to name but a few.
The predominant musical influence of this period stems initially from ltaly but by
the middle of the 18th century, the various nations had assimilated the ltalian influence
and asserteçl their individual characteristics. Of the more notable achievements of
Baroque music, perhaps the elevation of purely instrumental music to an inde pendent
status is the one most strongly felt today. Other achievements of significance are the
birth of opera (which has spawned such diverse forms as the modern symphony and
the pop song), the harmonie and tonal system upon which ail our music sincethen has
been based and the development of national styles.
Although it's true thàt no music is ever played exact/y as it is written, the music of
this period grants the player the greatest freedom in departing from the written music.
This departure is manifested in a number of ways, the most important being orna-
mentation, dynamics, tempo and rhythmic alteration (a detailed explanation of last
l 5

•
,.i
named elements is beyond the scope of this book and the reader is encouraged to
refer to Dotmetsch as listed in the bibliograpy).
The ornamentation of certain notes (essentially the main or principal ones and
cadential notes) was considered obligatory. C. P. E. Bach wrote, '"lt is not likely that
anybody could question the necessity of ornaments. They are not only useful , but
indispensable. They connect the notes; theY. give them lite.'" The three most common
ornaments are the trill (tr.). the mordent ( "fV ) and the inverted mordent ( M' ).
The tri// is begun on the note one scale ste'p (whole or half) above the written
(principal) note which is indicated in this edition by the grace note tied to the principal
note. The rhythmic outline of the entire figure appears above it in parentheses. This
parenthetical figure appears here for the student's aid but doe~ not normally appear in
Baroque notation. (Ex. 1a). The number of alternations ernployed will depend on the
duration of the note and the tempo. At slow tempi the ornamental note is held briefly,
then allowed to fall to the principal note at which time the alternations begin slowly,
gradually becoming more rapid. Quite often the tri li will conta in an extra note for more
elaborate ettect (Ex. 1b ). ])) (J>J

The mordent is a rapid alternation from the written note to the note one scale step
below (half or whole) and back to the written note (Ex. 2a). When the decorative note
is otherthan would ordinarily appear in the scale (as in modulations or minorkeys) the
necessary accidentai appears above the symbol (Ex. 2b).

(01) The incredible n1arriage of unearthly naïveté and worldly sophistication is perhaps
the most endearing quality of the music of the Classical period. lts innocent spirit,
projected through worldly artfulness, is nowhere more perfectly manifested than in
the music of Mozart. ln tact. that other master of the age, Josef Haydn, was moved to
say that if music lovers couId understand Mozart's music the way he himself did, "nations
would vie with one another fo possess such a treasure within their walls."
This period, beginning about 1750 (with the death of J.S. Bach) and ending about
1827 (wlth the death of Beethoven), de rives its name from the renewed interest in
Greek (Classical) architecture and its elegant display of rigorouslycontrolled form. ln
a similar manner, the qualities of clarity, grace and restraintcharacterize the music of
Haydn, Mozart and early Beethoven and their guitarist counterparts Fernando Sor
and Mauro Giuliani. Here, as ln the Baroque, the style originated in ltaly but was
brought to its zenith in Germany.
Toward the middle of the 18th century, Baroque counterpoint gave way to more
singable (cantabile) melodies supported by harmonie textures of the utmost clarity.
No longer was the music heavily ornamented by the player and only a few of the
•
14
ornaments such as the tri ll and the mordent were re tained as symbols. The
ornamentation itself did not disappear but rather became an integral part of the melody.
Ex. 3 shows how bar no. 11 of Mozarts Andante ( K. 545) would appear had it been
written by a Baroque composer.

A true expression of t his music w ill be achieved by playing gracefully while striving
for a sense of c harm and w it . The tempo ought to be held fairly steady using rubato
judiciously and infrequently. Dynamics (p, f, cresc, decresc.) play a very important
role but must serve to underscore the formai balance. ln other words, dynamics are
not simply sprinkled randomly, but rather are used so as to bring out the architecture
of the music.
For a more complete experience of the Classical spirit one might investigate the
marvelously precise drawings and paintings of.Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste
Ingres and the architecture of Thomas Jefferson.

intense persona! expression employed to capture and describe every imaginable
emotional state. One of the first to explore these hitnerto uncharted reg ions was the
great Spanish painter Francisco de Goya. He greatly influenced the artist who most
perfectly typifies the romantic spirit, Eugene Delacroix, whose sweeping canvasses
are extravagent symphonies of col or. Of no Iess grandeurwere the highly imaginative
flights of such poetsas Hugo, Goethe, Lord Byron and the aforementioned Baudelaire.
Although Romantics such as Richard Strauss and Sergei Rachmaninoff lived into
the 1940's, the movernent had burned itself out by the beginning of the 20th century.
Nevertheless, its powerful spirit lives on via recordings and the concert hall where the
larger portion of most programs are drawn from the Romantic repertoire.
A convincing performance of this mu::;ic will be characterized by a careful molding
of the melody, a flexible give and take in tempo /tempo rubato) and a compassionate
rendering of its musical and emotional "meaning _"

TWENTIETH
CENTURY
If one were to listen to a number of Minuets by Haydn, Mozart, Bach 's sons, Clementi
and Beethoven one after another, it would be immediately apparent that, while individual
i n character i n many ways, there are ma~y similarities which create a feeling of
"sameness" arn ong them. A repetition of this experiment using pieces by Debussy,
Stravinsky, Bartok, Ives, Shoenberg, Prokofiev and Ravel would c reate quite the
opposite impression. We now have a stylistic diversity from one composer to thr next
which isat once veryexciting and highlyconfusing. The pursuitof individuality, begun
in earnest by the Romantics, has continued unabated to this day and is one of the
trademarks of modern art.
ln the 1890's a departure from the harmonie practice of live centuries occurred
which marked a major turning point in the evolution of modern music. One c omposer
largely responsible for this revolutionary gesture was Claude Debussy. ln his use of
~
freely shifting harmonies and organically developed forms, we find the seeds of the
modern approach. At the sarne time (late 1BO0's, early 1900's) enormous changes
were being wrought upon the visual arts by Van Gogh, Cezanne, Monet and Picasso.
And while Ezra Pound and James Joyce were giving voice to the modern sensibility in
poetry and prose, Sigmund Freud ana Albert Einstein were challenging ourconcepts
•
of human psychology and our understanding of time and space.
To give the music of a modern composer, say Ravel, its proper inflection, one
r--
must acquaint oneself with all the music of Ravel. Only in this way cana thorough
understanding of his musical character be developed. Unfortunately, there is l[ttle else
to be said about performance style in the 20th century. However, what can·t be said
can be heard since there exist both recordings and live performances of the works of
early 20thcenturycomposers. ln manycases the performers may have special insight
as to style owing to acquaintance with the composer himself. Such is the case with the TWEMT1€TH
pianist Robert Casadesus, friend and compatriot of Maurice Ravel. Casadesus has
recorded the Pavane included in this collectioh.
