Other European 16th century Secular Songs and Composers

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! I am your host, Dr. Maeve Berry! I hope you are enjoying season 2, as we only have a couple episodes left talking about the Renaissance! We are going to talk about other 16th century European secular songs and composers today besides the ever popular secular form of the Italian madrigal. If you missed learning about the Italian madrigal, be sure to check out the last episode! There are several secular songs I would like to talk about today: villanella, canzonetta, balletto, lyric and narrative chansons, and consort songs.

16th century Italian Madrigal

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! I am your host, Dr. Maeve Berry, and I am thrilled that you are here today with me to learn more about the 16th century Italian madrigal! We’ve learned so much already this season -- it really seems like it has flown by! If you haven’t checked out the earlier episodes of the season or even season 1, I suggest you do so, so that you can see the progression of music take off! Today’s topic, the Italian madrigal, would not have come to fruition had it not been for the composers, techniques, and political and socio economic challenges that had come before.

Music Theory Friday: Masses on Borrowed Materials

Welcome back to another episode of Season 2 of Between the Barlines! Today is our first music theory Friday of the season! Today we are going to finish talking about masses for a while and address a specific foundational practice that was used during the Renaissance period: creating masses based off of borrowed materials. I began to mention a few of these several episodes ago, but I thought it would be good to have them all in one place where we could easily dissect the differences among the varying masses.
