A Social History Of Table Music From Ancient Egypt Through The Eighteenth Century, George Calvin Foreman

Music ETDs

The social practice of table music, i.e. music performed at banquets or meals, has not, apparently, been previously considered as a subject for organized research. The term is not even given an entry in many of the major musical dictionaries and encyclopedias; those which do include the term offer only surface and, in general, incomplete definitions. The present study, therefore, attempts to present a history of the social uses and types of table music from antiquity through the eighteenth century. The findings of the study are based on three sources of information: actual score examples of music composed for or …

The Influence Of Freemasonry On Some Of The Music Of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Lloyd Earl Mitchell

All Master's Theses

There is considerable evidence to indicate that the Fraternity of Freemasonry exerted creative impulses to some of the music of Wolfgang Mozart, subsequent to 1784. This study shows that Mozart, by virtue of his membership in the Order, was sufficiently impressed with benevolences and spiritual teachings of Freemasonry to symbolically reflect the ritual of the Order in an artistic manner. To support this contention a review of Freemasonry in the Eighteenth Century, an analysis of Mozart's association with Masonry, an inquiry into the relation of Freemasonry and the existing religious order, and an overview of Mozart's Masonic compositions are presented.

An Original Composition For Band “Suite For Band”, Bill R. Love

All Master's Theses

The writer's contemporary work seeks to contribute to the growing repertoire of original band music. The technique, range, intonation, and rhythm problems of average high school musicians are taken into special consideration. It could easily serve as an introductory piece to performers unfamiliar with the contemporary idiom. Although performance difficulties are kept to a minimum, "Suite for Band" should prove musically challenging and worthwhile to both high school and college bands.
