Hollers, Hymns and Dirges. Homenaje; Le Tombeau de Debussy. Born in , he became organist of a church in Rome, and later chamber-musician to Prince Borghesi. He was also one of the best-known harpsichord-players of his time. He died in , at Rome. The son of the famous operatic composer, Allesandro Scarlatti, he was born at Naples in , and began his career as an opera-composer; later he became chapel-master at St. Clavier-playing early claimed his chief attention, and won him the highest distinction.

Going to Lisbon in , he was appointed court cembaHst; and after returning to Naples, was called to Madrid in a similar capacity. In he went back to Naples, where he died three years later. His clavier-pieces show great strides in developing the technique and style of the clavier. Most of them are in one movement and free forms, called by Scarlatti himself "Esercizi" as the English call- ed similar pieces "Lessons" - There are dances of all sorts Studies, Preludes, Toc- catas, Sonatas in the earlier sense of the word , and a few Fugues. The most famous of these last is the "Cat's Fugue," so called from a legend to the effect that the unusual seccession of intervals in the theme was suggested by a cat walking over the keys of the harpsichord, — a legend that, like most of its kind, has no basis in fact.

Scarlatti's pieces made greater demands upon the player than any music writ- ten previous to that time. They required the full and independent use of all fingers, the power of trilling equally with all, striking the same key with different fingers in quick succession, the use of both hands one after the other in rapid passages, the crossing of the hands, and freedom of the wrist for the brilliant and accuracte execu- tion of runs in thirds, sixths and octaves.

Born in the opening decade of the seventeenth century — the exact date is uncertain — son of a musician, he was taken to Vienna to serve as a boy-singer. Afterwards he became court organist there, and was sent by the emperor to Rome for study under Frescobaldi. His compostions in- clude Toccatas, Fantasias and other free forms, and many suites of dances, in which he contributed potently toward a freer and more expressive style for the clavier. He was the first of the Germans to employ the graces and ornaments — turns, shakes, mordents, etc.

Born in Denmark in , he became the most distinguished organist of his time, and most of his works are for the organ. He, too, was greatly admired by Bach; and many composers, including Bach himself, Handel, Buxtehude, even Mozart, did him the honor of appropriating some of his fugal themes. He was born at Nuremberg in ; became assistant-organist to Kerll at Vienna; and later won fame of his own in the organ-lofts of numerous North German cities. He died in Nuremberg, in Born in Harz Mountains in some say , he studied in Dresden, and became organist of the famous church of St.

Thomas at Leipzig, can- tor of the school connected therewith, and musical director of the University, where he was Johann Sebastian Bach's immediate predecessor.

Among his clavier- compositions are many Suites and Sonatas; in the latter his work is of special impor- tance, as developing upon the clavier the possibilities of the Sonata in its modern sense, it having previously been cultivated only as a form of concerted music. He spent most of his life as organist in Munich. For some years he was secretary to the EngHsh legation at Hamburg, and later charge d'affaires.

He was born in the city in , and liv- ed there all his life. An admirer of Kuhnau, much of his music shows the lat- ter's influence. He was born in Passau in , the son of Georg Muffat, one of the most important clavier-composers of the preceding generation, and was taught by him and later by Fux, the famous Viennese theorist. Appointed court organist at Vienna in , he continued in the post forty-seven years. He died in His numerous clavier- works consisted largely of dances of every description, in which the French influence then in the ascendant in Germany, more especially Couperin's is clearly apparent.

In France, clavier-composition began with dance-music, imitaiton of the vocal style having played little part in French instrumental music. Even in the earliest at- tempts at opera, the strongly marked and characteristic rhythms of dance-forms had appealed most forcibly to French composers, and continued to do so for many years. A feature of his music was the lavish use of the agremens, or ornamental flourishes, which were destined to gain an ever-increasing importance.

Another was his use of fanciful titles — mythological, idyllic, pictorial, even personal. Chambonnieres was born about the beginning of the seventeenth century the date is not certain. He played both organ and clavier, but the latter with genius, which won him the appointment of claveciniste to Louis XlV. He also taught flute-playing in Paris and London, amassing much money thereby.

As a claveciniste he played on and composed for the harpsichord. A nephew of Louis Couperin, and born in Paris in , he was organist, serving King Louis XIV in that capacity, and like-wise one of the most skilful of harpsichordists. His com- positions are all for the harpsichord, and written in the form of Suites, or "Ordres," as he termed them. The several numbers of each Suite are based on dance-forms, which he transmuted into little pieces of picturesque program-music, each with its own title.

József Gát (harpsichord) François Couperin: Pièces de clavecin Ordre 1 & 2

Couperin set a high value on his agremens, which occur in almost every measure of his music, and for which he devis- ed an elaborate system of signs. He also laid stress on systematic fingering, and published a book on the subject, "L'Art de Toucher le Clavecin. Born in , he travelled in Italy, became harpsichord-player to an Italian operatic company, won distinction as an organist, and published theoretical writings on music which gained him great fame.

He wrote numerous pieces for the harpsichord, mostly in the form of Suites of the kind developed by Couperin, though the influence of Scarlatti makes itself felt in them. Legere ment, sa iis Vitesse.
