Abstract

Das Nachleben des Renaissance-Komponisten Josquin Desprez im deutschen Sprachraum des 16. Jahrhunderts dargestellt anhand verschiedener wesentlicher 'Rezeptionsparadigmen'. 0No other composer before Josquin Desprez (c. 1450?1521) was appreciated in such a broad way, especially beyond elitist musician circles. It is not for nothing that his influential 16th-century afterlife has been compared to the afterlife of Beethoven in the 19th century. 0The present study investigates the German speaking areas where the reception of Josquin was enormously rich. The sources led to an outline by 'reception paradigms'. These paradigms? canonisation, heroisation, literarisation and historicisation? reveal the rootage of Josquin's reception in 16th century cultural history and point especially to the importance of humanistic circles for the estimation of musical authorship and polyphonic art music. 0Accordingly, a wide field of sources and protagonists was considered, ranging from musical manuscripts to humanistic panegyrics, from composers and music theorists to theologians, rhetoricians and philosophers? among them the church reformer Philipp Melanchthon, who valued Josquin at eye level with Homer, Caesar, and Ovid, thus with the greatest names of intellectual and cultural history at that time.

Abstract

Josquin des Prez and His Musical Legacy' is the most up-to-date contribution to the research on one of the most important and internationally famous composers of the Renaissance. This monograph offers factual information on the composer as well as insights into his 16th-century and modern reception, a survey of the sources of his music, and a discussion of the thorny issue of authorship. Willem Elders, one of the most distinguished scholars of Josquin's music, also discusses the influence of Gregorian chant as a source of inspiration and explains the various aspects of Josquin's symbolic language. Each individual work (including some of those in the old Josquin edition now considered inauthentic) receives a short discussion of relevant contextual aspects and interesting musical features. Ranges and lengths are given for each work. The style is adapted to the professional musicologist as well as to the music lover' and performer.
