The foundation of the computer methodology is a simplified encoding system for Renaissance music named VASL, based on the principle of segmenting music into small sections to facilitate the programming of either linear or vertical analysis. However, the chief advantage of VASL was found in the development of an analytical tech- nique termed "numeric score reduction" (the combining of specific groups of notes from a score into single average pitch values which can be plotted as points on a graph). The application of numeric score reduction to the study of sixteenth-century parody technique proved par- ticularly enlightening when the relationship between the Mass and its model seemed vague or non-existent. Numeric score reduction revealed subtle structural elements trans- ferred from the models to the Masses by putting them into a form which could be objectively graphed and measured.

Since this first wave of pilot projects, a leveling off seems to have occurred especially in the area of style analysis. There are several possible reasons for this apparent decline in the use of the computer in music research. First, the need for some kind of formal training.in computer skills has always been a barrier. A lack of understanding by the uninitiated has often led either to false hopes or to skepticism, and to a view of the computer more as a gimmick than a research tool. In an article summarizing accomplish- ments in computer-assisted music research, Harry Lincoln has pointed out two additional problems: The hard fact is that certain aspects of computer applications to music research continue to prove stumbling blocks. Among these are the tedious preparation of input and the need for output in music notation.1 1Harry B. Lincoln, "Use of the computer in Music Re- search: A Short Report on Accomplishments, Limitations and Future Needs," Computers and the Humanities, VIII (September, 1974). 285- The manual encoding of music into a machine-usable form has long been an obstacle limiting large-scale projects and discouraging many researchers because of the thousands 2 The of error-prone punch cards usually required as input. solution to this problem may soon be found in recent hard- ware developments which have allowed the coupling of an optical scanner to a small computer. This combination of Optical scanner and computer is already being used in many fields. Probably only a modest amount of programming would enable the scanner to recognize standard music notation and permit the computer to translate it into one of the many languages already developed for manual encoding. An additional problem caused by hardware limitations is the printing of standard music notation by the computer. This, too, can be solved with current technology, but a satisfac- tory printing system has yet to be developed. Lincoln also mentions another problem which may very well be the single most important reason why relatively few studies have made a significant contribution to musical scholarship: These hardware problems will undoubtedly be solved in the next few years but more basic questions are likely to remain: 'What does one look for?‘ and 'How does one phrase the problem in unambiguous terms which are computable?'3 A great deal of creative thinking and development will be required to overcome this obstacle and generate a new 2For definitions of technical terms see appendix D. 3Lincoln, "Use of the Computer," p. 285. wave of projects. In the past most computer-assisted anal— ysis has been either of a statistical nature (interval counts, etc.) or an attempt to automate specific aspects of tradi- tional analysis. Until the advent of a workable optical scanner either type of analysis is probably not very prac— tical, and even after the optical scanner comes into general use, the real advantage of the computer may not be in the duplication of traditional analysis procedures. Instead, a new type of analysis system will probably be required, one designed around the computer's special capabilities and aimed at supplementing, not replacing, conventional analysis. Writing in 1966 about computer applications for the humani- ties, Louis Milic already seemed aware of this point: Thus we must learn to ask it [the computer] larger questions than we can answer and to detect what escapes our un-aided senses. This may involve not only proposing old questions in new ways but even thinking up new questions. The computer can be made an extension of man only if it opens avenues we have not suspected the existence of.“ Keeping in mind the concepts stated by Lincoln and Milic, the focus of this thesis will be the development of new computer-oriented techniques for the analysis of Renais- sance music in general and sixteenth-century parody tech- nique in particular. The specific music to be investigated will be the Kyrie movements from the five parody Masses by Clemens non Papa which use chansons as their models. This body of music was chosen for several reasons. First, there is an absence of recent studies dealing with the “Louis T. Milic, "The Next Step," Computers and the Humanities, I (September, 1966), 4-5. 5 Masses of this major sixteenth-century composer. Second, the project requires a unified body of music. Finally. the concept of parody technique offers an excellent opportunity for studying the transformation of musical ideas and for the comparison of musical styles. Related Research A brief survey of the more prominent projects shows that while computer-assisted analysis has been used to study music from virtually every period, there has been a relatively high concentration of studies dealing with early music, and particularly music of the Renaissance. One reason for the popularity of computer studies of early music may be the relatively limited number of notational elements as compared with nineteenth- or twentieth-century music. Encoding and programming are greatly simplified by the presence of a precise number of voice parts and the absence of dynamic markings, phrase markings, articulation etc. One of the first dissertations dealing with computer- assisted analysis of early music was completed by James Curry in 1969. Curry's study dealt with the Kyrie move- ments from five Masses by Johannes Ockeghem.6 Concentrating 5The most recent study appears to be Joseph Schmidt-Gorg, "Die Messen des Clemens non Papa." Zeitschrift ffir Musik- wissenschaft, IX (1926-27). 129-158. 6James L. Curry, "A Computer-Aided Analytical Study of Kyries in Selected Masses of Johannes Ockeghem" (unpub- lished Ph.D. dissertation, University of Iowa, 1969). on dissonance treatment, Curry identified the more common melodic contours which Ockeghem used in a dissonant context. The computer was used to measure the harmonic intervals above the lowest-sounding voice in the Kyries, and to analyze the types of melodic movement into and out of these intervals. The resulting data was used in part to set up interval classes similar to consonance and dissonance. Several interesting dissertations dealing with computer-assisted analysis have appeared in the seventies. Raymond Erickson has done a stylistic analysis of Notre Dame Organa to settle questions regarding the use of modal rhythm in the duplum.7 A structural analysis of the music correlated rhythmic points of stress and the medieval principle of consonance. Results showed an overwhelming number of consonant intervals at these points, and the study suggests, on musical rather than merely theoretical grounds, that a modal framework is probable. In another dissertation Philip Patrick has used the computer to study a suspension formation in the Masses of Josquin Desprez. Patrick attempted to formulate "constructs" which would help to identify the suspension formation and to trace any large-scale structural elements associated with it. The computer was used to find the suspensions and to reduce 7Raymond F. Erickson, "Rhythmic Problems and Melodic Structure in Organum Purum: A Computer-assisted Study" (un- published Ph.D. dissertation, Yale University, 1970). 8Philip H. Patrick, "A Computer study of a Suspension- Formation in the Masses of Josquin Desprez" (unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, Princeton University, 1973). them by removing melodic ornamentation so that only the basic suspension formation remained. One of the most recent studies is by David Stech, who has written a com— puter program to assist in the micro-analysis of melodic lines.9 The program was designed to help the analyst locate specific types of melodic patterns. Several large-scale projects have also been attempted in recent years. At the University of Chicago, Lawrence Bernstein has headed a project to study the entire repertory of sixteenth-century French secular polyphonic chansons.10 The project includes a style analysis and the generation of a thematic concordance of the repertory. Arthur Mendel has been involved since the mid-sixties in a major project at Princeton University to study the Masses and motets of Josquin Desprez.11 Another ambitious project, designed to build a thematic index of sixteenth-century Italian music for the purpose of identifying anonymous works, duplications, and borrowings, has been carried out in part by Harry Lincoln from the State University of New York at Binghamton.12 9 David Alan Stech, "A Computer-assisted Approach to Micro-analysis of Melodic Lines" (unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, Michigan State University, 1976). 10Lawrence F. Bernstein and Joseph P. Olive, "Computers and the 16th-Century Chanson: A Pilot Project for the Univer- sity of Chicago," Computers and the Humanities, III (January, 1969). 153-160. 11Arthur Mendel, "Some Preliminary Attempts at Computer- assisted Style Analysis in Music," Computer and the Humanities, IV (September, 1969), 41-52. 12Harry E. Lincoln, "The Thematic Index: A Computer Application to Musicology," Computers and the Humanities, II (May, 1968), 215-220. Examination of the more prominent computer-assisted projects related to the analysis of early music has helped to demonstrate some of the approaches already explored. As previously stated, the goal of this study is the development of new analytical principles designed specifically for the computer. Although within the limits of a small-scale project a complete analytical system cannot be developed, the principles presented in this thesis may serve as the foundation for such development in the future. CHAPTER II SIXTEENTH-CENTURY PARODY TECHNIQUE Fourteen of the fifteen Masses by Clemens non Papa are based on pre-existing chansons or motets and are gen- erally referred to as parody Masses. However, the term "parody" seems to be under attack by recent scholarship. Lewis Lockwood believes that the term originated somewhat by accident in the nineteenth century, and has gained wide- spread use only since then. He supports this theory by a detailed investigation of primary sources of the period, and has determined that "parody" (or parodia) is not used in any of them. Instead, the word "imitatio" seems the prevalent term for this compositional practice in the sixteenth century.13 Another problem with the term "parody" is the wide variety of definitions applied to it. According to Lockwood, very few sixteenth—century theorists devote any attention to the practice of polyphonic derivation despite its impor- tance as a compositional technique of this period. His research indicates that the most detailed account of parody procedures by a contemporary theorist is to be found in Book 13Lewis Lockwood, "On 'Parody' as Term and Concept in 16th-Century Music," Aspects of Medieval and Renaissance Music: A Birthday Offering to Gustave Reese, ed. by Jan La Rue (New York: Norton, 1966), pp. 560-566. 8 XII of Pietro Cerone's El melopeo y maestro published in 1613. Cerone has many valuable comments to offer on the art of Mass composition, some of which are specifically related to the practice of borrowing. Only these points are ex- tracted and paraphrased below. 1) The invention at the beginning of the first Kyrie, the Gloria, the Credo, the Sanctus, and the Agnus Dei should correspond to the beginning of the model, though their contrapuntal treatment of this material should vary. 2) The Christe may be based on a subsidiary motive from the model or one invented by the composer. 3) The beginnings of the last Kyrie and the second and third Agnus Dei may be based on freely-invented material or on other subsidiary material from the model. 4) The endings of the last Kyrie, the Gloria, the Credo, the Sanctus, the Osanna and the third Agnus Dei should use, though in diverse ways, the endings of the model. 5) The endings of the Christe, the Et in terra, the Patrem omnipotentem, the Pleni sunt coeli or Benedictus, and the second Agnus Dei may close on the confinal of the tone. 6) In the course of the Mass, the more use that is made of internal motives from the mode , the more praiseworthy the elaboration will be.1 As can be seen by this extract from Cerone, even contempo- rary sources offered only a limited description of the practice of borrowing. The extension of parody to include types of borrowing other than those found in sixteenth—century polyphonic styles has also led to much confusion. In an effort to 14 A translation of the relevant section appears in Oliver Strunk, Source Readings in Music History, (New York: Norton, 1950), pp. 265-268. 10 clarify this situation Ludwig Finscher has attempted to outline the development of Mass composition from the fifteenth-century cantus-firmus style to the sixteenth- century parody style. Finscher proposes that, in the first stage, two or three voices were taken over intact and combined with several new voices, the substance of the borrowed material not being altered. In the second stage, borrowed voices formed the framework of the parody but were paraphrased by interpolations, colorations and rhythmic variation. By stage three motives or phrases, not whole voices, were adapted and paraphrased in new contrapuntal combinations. Finally, during the fourth stage, a whole composition or section from it was adapted, with the entire contrapuntal structure being reworked in the parody.15 More recently, Lewis Lockwood has added some new insight into the changes that occurred during the transi— tion from cantus-firmus Mass to parody Mass. The essence of his observations deals with the new importance of motives as building blocks in sixteenth-century parody technique: In older Masses, one or more entire lines are taken over and serve as foundation for whole sections or movements of the Mass: indeed, the borrowed voice cannot be treated otherwise without destroying its linear integrity. In the newer parody Mass, however, the composer seeking to elaborate--or re~elaborate-- the borrowed material, takes from the model individual motives and phrases, sometimes incorporating the . 15Ludwig Finscher, "Loyset Compere and His Works," Mus1ca D1sc1plina, XIII (1959), pp. 141-142. 11 original complex with minor modifications, sometimes establishing new contrapuntal combinations. In either case, the essential element is go longer the total line but the individual motive.1 Carrying the concept of motives one step further, Quentin Quereau points out in his study of fourteen parody Masses by Palestrina that: ... when a sixteenth-century composer borrows more than motives alone and includes relationships between successive motive entries he has entered the realm of parody.17 Lewis Lockwood believes that the new importance of motives as the major compositional element of the sixteenth- century parody Mass was due to a change in the type of model composers chose as a basis for their Masses. He argues that in the fifteenth century the typical model was the chanson, with its layered construction. The discant and tenor lines usually created the basic framework of the fifteenth-century chanson or motet to which one or two other voices were added. The two basic voices were generally self-contained melodic lines. Imitation was sometimes used at this time, but it was still not a decisive element in the shaping of an entire composition. However, in the sixteenth century, Lockwood believes that there was a shift to the motet as the typical model fi 16Lewis Lockwood, "A View of the Early Sixteenth- Century Parody Mass," The Department of Music, Queens College of the City of New York Twentyefifth Anniversary Festschrift, ed. by Albert Mell (New York: Queens College Press, 1964), p. 61. 17Quentin Wolcott Quereau, "Palestrina and the Motteti del_Fiore of Jacques Moderne: A Study of Borrowing Procedures in Fourteen Parody Masses" (unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, Yale University, 1974). . 12 for a parody Mass, and that motivic imitation became a very important compositional element. In light of this theory it is interesting to note that in five of the twelve Masses by Clemens for which the models are known, chansons are used as models. Did he nevertheless utilize the sixteenth- century technique of motivic imitations? A study of the Masses by Clemens based on chansons rather than on motets should help to answer this question. CHAPTER III COMPUTER METHODOLOGY AND THE ANALYSIS PROGRAM The Encoding System Musical scholars who wish to utilize the computer must translate, or encode, the music with which they are working into numerals and letters in order to make it accessible to the computer. A number of such encoding languages have been devised, the most well known of which is the Digital Alternate Representation of Music Symbols (usually referred as DARMS).18 However, DARMS and other existing languages were found to contain certain features unnecessary for the present project. while lacking other features which were required.19 For this reason it was decided to develop a new language, named VASL (Vertically Aligned Segmented Language), having a very specialized and uncluttered vocabulary designed to simplify the process of encoding and programming. VASL contains no characters to indicate time signature, key signature, acci- dentals or musica ficta. Each of these elements is absorbed by the encoding language. Features such as accidentals and musica ficta could easily be added to VASL at a later time, 18Raymond Erickson, "The Darms Project: A Status Report," Computers and the Humanities, IX (1976), 291-298. 19For a detailed description of some of the better- known encoding languages see Barry S. Brook, Musicology and the Computer, (New York: City University of New York Press, 1970). 13 14 but were not required for the present study. The capacity to handle triplets and triple meters was also not necessary for the particular music being dealt with, so these capa- bilities were omitted as well. VASL is based on the principle of segmenting the score into small sections. For the purposes of this study, units equivalent to three measures of modern notation were used. This principle facilitates the programming of either linear or vertical analysis and helps open up possibilities for new kinds of analysis involving both. The following description of the encoding process shows how the music notation is translated into an alpha-numeric representation, and how this representation is key punched onto data cards. The basic vocabulary of VASL may be outlined as follows: 1) The numeric system used to represent pitch assigns to every semitone within the range of the piano a unique numeric value. The pitch middle-C is given a value of 40 because it is the fortieth note on the piano when starting with the lowest note. Numeric values for the other semitones are assigned sequentially in the following manner: 2) V3) 15 The numeric value for each pitch is unaffected by the chromatic designation used. For example, B-flat above middle-C retains its numeric value of 50 even if the pitch is notated as A-sharp in the score. The numeric value of 99 indicates no pitch, therefore a rest. Rhythmic duration is indicated as follows: W whole H = half Q = quarter E = eighth S = sixteenth . = dotted note value J = tied note value Card layout: VASL has a built in numbering system which has been designed in such a way that a unique sequential number can be assigned to each card in columns 1 through 6. This feature was conceived as a safe- guard. In the event that the data cards are dropped, they can be run through a card sorter and put back in sequence automatically. The first card of a data deck is used to indicate the title of the composition and the name of the composer. 16 CARD COLUMNS EN TRY 1-2 Enter a unique number from 1 to 99 identifying the composition. 3-6 Enter four zeros "0000".20 7-99 Enter the title of the composition and the composer in free form. All subsequent data cards represent the musical score. CARD COLUMNS ENTRY 1-2 Enter the same identification number used for the title card. 3-5 Enter a unique sequential number for each data card starting with "001". 6 Enter the voice number -- assign voice numbers sequentially starting with the first soprano equal to "1". 7-10 Leave blank. Columns 11 through 15 are a unit and represent one note value or rest value. 11-12 Enter the proper pitch value. 13 If the note is dotted enter a period ".". 14 If two notes are tied enter a "J" for the second note of the tie. This unit can be repeated up to fourteen times on one card or until the note values and rest values of three measures have been accounted for. If more than fourteen values are present in a three-measure segment, punch a dash "-" in 20Standard computer practice dictates that periods remain outside of quotation marks unless part of the input. 17 column 80 and continue on the next card punching the same information into columns 1-2 and 6 and incrementing columns 3-5 by one. The Edit Program The translation of music into letters and numerals tends to give rise to a great deal of clerical error. For this reason a program was written to edit the encoded data. Two types of editing capabilities are provided by the pro- gram. First, the data from the cards is spread out and organized to simplify visual verification of the encoded data. The second editing feature is programmatic. The rhythmic values of each card are added up separately, and a total for the card is printed on the far right hand side of the report. This simple editing procedure reveals the two most common encoding errors, which are the omission or repetition of a note and the encoding of an incorrect or invalid duration code (see Figure 1). The Analysis Program The analysis program consists of five individual routines which are selected through the use of an option card bearing the number of the routine that the analyst wishes to run. The format of the option card is as follows: CARD COLUMNS ENTRY 1-6 Enter the program identification code "MUSP02". 7 Enter the number of the analysis routine to be run (1 through 5). 9-80 Leave blank. 1.8 a: o: a; a; o: a: o: o: a: a: o: a: o: a: o: «a wucm Gnn Gmn GNm u~4 am: Unn ahn can me: :m: can a.~ a.» on: 60: won as: awn 0 an» Ga: 6:: as: us» :0: am: am: amn asn am: aw: :on :Nm Gem as: cwm an" an: aw: mom an: ::m as: mm: a¢m .Emhwopm veto mwn an: am: am: eamm GN: mwm 2m: we: mNm odnn no?

Although it was not so used in this study, the possibility of employing graphic score notation as an analytical tool was one of several interesting and unexpected discoveries stemming from this project. In the future, a computer- assisted analysis project could be developed from this beginning. The next four options of the analysis program use a principle developed for this study called "numeric score reduction." This analytical procedure is based on the concept of combining specific groups of notes from a score and producing a single pitch value representing the average pitch value of the combined notes. These average pitch values are then plotted as points on a graph for analytical interpretation. For this study the points were plotted manually, but it would be relatively simple to write a program to plot the points using the printer from the computer. The analysis program enables the analyst to combine and average the notes of a musical score in four different ways. Option two combines and averages the elements of each voice separately (see Figure 3) while option three combines the whole polyphonic complex, producing one average pitch value for each measure (see Figure 4). Options four and five divide the score into half-note units. The specific function of option four is to combine and average the elements of each voice separately (see Figure 5), while 22 option five combines the whole polyphonic complex, producing one average pitch value for every two quarter notes (see Figure 6). The principle of numeric score reduction has great potential as an analytical approach to music. First, it enables the analyst to measure or quantify musical events, thus giving him a more precise way of dealing with certain aspects of music than would be possible through his unaided senses. This can be very helpful when attempting to determine the relationship between two sections of music or when trying to test theories which are based more on intuitive feeling than on hard fact. Another feature of numeric score reduction (using options three or five of the analysis program) is that a visual impression can be gained of the polyphonic complex as a whole by reducing it 21 This can prove beneficial when one is to a single line. studying the overall shape of a composition. Finally, the process of numeric score reduction puts music into a form that enables the analyst to study it using concepts and analytical tools already developed for other fields. 21This is demonstrated on page 32 where the average pitch values are plotted on a graph. 23 t «a .m Coapmo .zoflposomh whoom owhmszz ifififibti.......fi’tfifitfit.Q...ittttfi..,$.§.fittt..b...

Jacques Clement, later known as Jacobus Clemens non Papa, was a Dutchman from the counties of Holland and Zeeland (the western provinces of the present Kingdom of the Netherlands). Members of the Clement family, who are thought to have been the ancestors of Clemens, settled in Middelburg on the isle of Walcheren sometime in the fifteenth century.22 The nearest musical center to Middelburg was Burges, and from there come the earliest documents concerning Clemens. Apparently no record exists to substantiate his date of birth, but it is thought to have been about 1510. It appears that the first published composition by Clemens was the chanson "Le departir est sans departement," printed by Attaignant in 1536. Clemens was a very prolific composer, known to have written at least 15 Masses, 231 22Karel Ph. Bernet Kempers, "Bibliography of the. . Sacred Works of Jacobus Clemens non Papa," Musica DlSClpllna, XVIII (1964), 85. 27 28 motets, 158 3-part canticles, and a large number of chansons. In 1544 Clemens became a singer in the choir of Burges's famous church of Saint-Donatian under the direction of Johannes de Hollande. On March 26th of the same year, Johannes de Hollande was dismissed and Clemens was chosen to succeed him. While in Burges, Clemens was also master of the children at the church and lodged with the choirboys at the house of Jan de Backere. His name vanishes from Burges in June 1545, but appears later that year in Antwerp.23 Soon after Clemens arrived in Antwerp, he sold some chansons and motets to the editor, Tilman Susato. In his Huitiesme Livre, a collection of chansons, the designation "non Papa" was apparently first added to Clemens name. The reason for this addition is still uncertain. There appears to be no foundation to the well-known story that Clemens- was called "Clemens non Papa" to distinguish him from P0pe Clement VII. The Pope reigned from 1523 to 1534, so a confusion with him seems unlikely. A more reasonable expla- nation comes from the fact that a poet in holy orders named Clement or Clemens lived in Ypres and was known as "Pere Clemens" or, in Latin, "Clemens Papa." Further research has shown that this was probably the man from whom Clemens_ wanted to distinguish himself.24 The last datable document on Clemens indicates that 23Bernet Kempers, "Bibliography of the Sacred Works," p. 87. 24 Karel Ph. Bernet Kempers, Jacobus Clemens non Papa Llrjfii seine Motetten (Augsburg: Filser, 1928): p. 11. 29 he stayed in Bois le Duc (now capital of the Dutch province of North Brabant) from October until December 24th, 1550. No known document exists to substantiate the date of Clemens death. (All that is definitely known is that Jacobus Vaet published an elegy on the death of Clemens sometime in 1558. The only other evidence (interpreted by some as an indica- tion of Clemens death in 1556) is the fact that in that year a series of publications began, devoted entirely to the Masses, motets and souterliedekins of Clemens. All fourteen of the parody Masses by Clemens were later published by Pierre Phalise in Louvain.25 The following list was designed to categorize them by the type of model used. Also indicated is the composer of the model and the number of voice parts in each Mass.

The two chansons by Claudin de Sermisy and the chanson by Clemens are in the Parisian style while the more imitative Netherlandish style is found in the chansons by Adrian Willaert and Pierre de Manchicourt. A comparative study of one Mass in each style demonstrates the use of numeric score reduction as an analytical tool. "Missa Jay veu 1e cerf," based on the chanson by Pierre de Manchicourt, was chosen as an example of a Mass based on a model in the Netherlandish style, whereas "Missa Or combien est," based on a chanson by Claudin de Sermisy, was chosen as an example 31 of a Mass based on a Parisian model. Experimentation with numeric score reduction and the Kyries of Clemens indicated that a promising aspect of this analytical procedure for studying parody technique was the combining of the whole polyphonic complex into one line. In tests using both whole-note averaging (option 3) and half-note averaging (option 5) the latter appeared to be the most effective procedure for the analysis of imitative polyphony, since it reflected greater detail. This detail is necessary because in imitative polyphony voices often enter or drop out in the middle of a measure. The system of whole-note averaging tends to obscure these changes. Thus the five Kyries and their models are graphed using half-note averaging. An explanation of several features of the graphs may facilitate the understanding of numeric score reduction. The heavy black horizontal line running through the middle of each graph represents a pitch value of forty, or middle-C, and was added to the graph as a point of reference. Time is represented horizontally, and for this reason measure numbers appear across the top of each graph. Pitch value is represented vertically, and thus pitch values appear on the left. The first pair of graphs (Figures 7 and 8) shows the opening sections of the chansons "Jay veu le cerf" and "Or combien est" represented by numeric score reduction. A visual comparison of the two graphs reveals a striking 32 contrast. The Parisian chanson (Figure 7) maintains a relatively smooth line, with the gentle curves of the graph roughly corresponding to the phrasing of the music. Also the pitch range of this graph is quite narrow, with the upper limit being a pitch value of forty-nine and the lower limit a pitch value of forty-three, or a pitch range of seven. In contrast to this the chanson in the Netherlandish style (Figure 8) has an upper-limit pitch value of fifty-two and a lower-limit pitch value of thirty-four, or a pitch range of nineteen. This graph also has a more irregular character and maintains a much less even line. Thus the contrast in style reflected by the graphs seems to parallel the stylistic contrast which exists between the two pieces of music. Figures 9 and 10 show the opening twenty measures of the first Kyrie of the Mass, "Jay veu le cerf," and the 13 ca 1H5 Figure 7. Chanson "Or combien est." 33 50 «45 Figure 8. Chanson "Jay veu le cerf." opening twelve measures of the chanson, "Jay veu le cerf." The first six points on the graph of the Mass correspond exactly to the first six points on the graph of the chanson. However, beginning in measure four the correspondence between the two graphs is much less exact. In order to more effectively study the overall structure of each graph a second line was drawn through those points believed to represent the general trend of the points as a whole. Although there could be different interpretations as to which points hold the most significance, changes in the 34 0— _. _ 50>. hem wmmH—Z .H 0 : 0 0H 0 0H“ Vm . Q “5%..” . 9H E ‘ 7. Wit/f4 . m 4 I); \ ... 35 So ‘05 35 Figure 10. Chanson "Jay veu le cerf." points selected would not greatly alter the overall picture that emerges. Beginning in measure two, both graphs indicate a rapid drop in pitch value. In Figure 9 this drop continues for five-and-one-half measures while in Figure 10 it continues for ten measures. At this point both graphs reflect a dramatic rise in pitch value followed by another decline. Using the graphs, an argument could be made that the first Kyrie of the Mass, "Jay veu le cerf," is an expanded version of its model. 36 Figure 11 is a graph of the opening ten measures of the first Kyrie of the Mass, "Or combien est," and Figure 12 is a graph of the opening ten measures of its model. To help demonstrate the relationship between the two graphs, the points at the apex and base of each curve have been circled and numbered. A comparison of these points reveals a strong relationship between the Mass and its model. First, there is a one to one correspondence between the apex and base of each curve in Figures 11 and 12. Second, the circled points of the two graphs correspond in their position relative to the measure numbers. Finally, when the circled points are compared to the music it is found that in both graphs the curves tend to conform to the phrase structure. These relationships would seem to indicate that although the Mass begins somewhat differently than its model, the overall structure of the two phrases is very similar. [I] E] 7,, 4 V Figure 11. Kyrie I of "Missa Or combien est." 37 4S 4%) Figure 12. Chanson "Or combien est." A very similar structural relationship exists between the Christe of "Missa Or combien est" (Figure 13) and its model (Figure 14). As in the previous graphs the apex and base of each major curve has been circled and numbered for interpretation. Although the circled points of the two graphs do not correspond in their position relative to the measure numbers (as they did in the first Kyrie), other structural similarities exist. The vertical distance (or change in pitch value) between points 2 and 3 of both graphs is seven. The vertical distance between points 3 and 4 is also seven. Points 4 and 5 have a vertical distance of five, while points 7 and 8 have a vertical distance of four. The only deviation in this pattern occurs between points 5, 6 and 7. In Figure 15 the vertical distance between points 5 and 6 is five and between points 6 and 7 38 «It-tr : .Pmm :69 .9500 no mmmas . 9. “O m Pmap . no 99 893999 39 : 9mm cofipsoo no: Comsmno .99 onswam c) h C‘Q‘Vf ED“? *0 40 is seven. The vertical distance between points 5 and 6 in Figure 14 is seven while the difference between points 6 and 7 is eight. These pitch-related structural similarities become even more interesting when a comparison is made between the two sections of music. The musical relationship between the Christe and its model is very subtle. In fact, without the aid of the two graphs a correspondence between the two might go unnoticed. No strong structural similarity was found between the Christe of "Missa Jay veu le cerf" and the model, but a similarity did appear in the second Kyrie. The following pair of graphs (Figures 15 and 16) shows the relationship between the first sixteen measures of the Kyrie and the last seventeen measures of the model. The circled points 1, 3 and 5 have a pitch value of forty-five in both the Kyrie and the model and point 6.has a pitch value of thirty- seven. The vertical distance between points 1 and 2 and also between points 2 and 3 is five in Figure 17 and six in Figure 16. The vertical distance between points 3 and 4 and also between points 4 and 5 is twelve in Figure 17 and eleven in Figure 16. A visual comparison of the overall structure of the two graphs also helps to establish their similarities. The most striking feature common to both graphs is the drastic changes in pitch value between points 3, 4 and 5. This general observation, coupled with the detailed discus- sion of vertical distance and pitch value, helps to clarify 41 =.9poo ma 38> 989 8mm92= mo HH mwpzx .99 695999 4. .N w ltm l0». 9 9 9.9. m _ g E _H_ 42 N.‘ :.mpmo 89 5m> haw: comsmco ..N. .es stemse mm 43 the relationship between the second Kyrie and its model. The next pair of graphs (Figures 17 and 18) shows the first eleven measures of the second Kyrie in the Mass, "Or combien est," and the last eleven measures of its model. The strong relationship between the two graphs at the beginning is revealed by the exact correspondence of the pitch relationships of the first five circled points in their position relative to the measure numbers. However, after measure five their similarity diminishes significantly. A relationship can be seen between points 5, 6 and 7, but the strongest indication of a correspondence between the Mass and its model is to be found in the first five points. The final graph (Figure 19) shows the entire chanson. "Jay veu le cerf," represented by numeric score reduction. Several interesting observations can be made from the study [II [El [[9] 35 Figure 17. Kyrie II of "Missa Or combien est." 44 Figure 18. Chanson "0r combien est." of the graph of a whole composition. In this chanson the material beginning in measure four returns in measure forty- one. The graph shows these two sections as having_a dramatic drop in pitch value while the middle section alternates between short segments of rather even pitch value and segments of moderate change in pitch value. The contrast in style reflected by the graph seems to parallel the overall "A B A" form of the chanson. :.mhoo 69 Sm> 989: :omcmco .99 opsmflm mm . .2. 32/9. .5 mm B E .
