Description

Explore a new perspective on medieval music theory with Upper-Voice Structures and Compositional Process in the Ars Nova Motet. Part of the Royal Musical Association Monographs series, this work by Routledge examines the compositional methods used by Philippe de Vitry, Guillaume de Machaut, and their contemporaries. While traditional studies often view tenors as the primary shaping force through the use of talea and color, this book offers a fresh look at how upper voices function within the motet. It investigates the relationship between isorhythm and the periodic rhythmic patterns found in upper voices, challenging the idea that these patterns are merely an amplification of the tenor structure. This text provides a detailed analysis of how rhythmic and pitch repetition affects the overall construction of these historic musical works.
