Early Music Sources uploaded a new video. That means that no matter what’s happening in the world, today is a good day! Hope you’re all staying safe in Basel.
If you had told me a year ago that the best part of my day would be seeing a new Early Music Sources video appear, I would have been a little confused.
Thank you so much for these excellent resources! I am always so thrilled when you release a new video or write-up! Best wishes for everyone's health and safety
Note to self: 1:07 The basic Cadenza Doppia 5:39 Intoduction to the five variants 5:52 #1 - Going in circles 7:44 #2 - Descending stepwise 8:53 #3 - Ascending stepwise 9:52 #4 - Descend by thirds 10:33 #5 Moving the bass during cadences
5:51 This reminds me of Spiridionis a Monte Carmelo's "Nova Instructio." At the end of the Candentia Prima section, he shows how to use the preceding cadences in a circle of fifths progression.
Amazing video! I'm learning much more about Early Music with you guys than I did over my undergraduation. Having so much fun studying with your videos, thank you!
A splendid presentation as always! Your first cool thing - "going in circles" - immediately brought to mind the opening of the Sanctus from Victoria's Requiem of 1605, which is practically a textbook example of this.
Hey Elam, love your channel! For some reason when I play along with your harpsichord ( 1:24 onwards) I have to play the score a half step down to be in tune with you. Does this have to do with different tuning of instruments, I’m on a digital piano.
A special like for the background picture. Portrait of a Young Girl by Petrus Cristus, cover of Huizinga's Autumn of the Middle Ages. One of the greatest books I've read in my life.
The unprepared 4th could be explained by the tension caused by the leading tone being resolved earlier, like a antecipation but with an interpolated neighbour tone.
So many examples here sound like beautiful excerpts from bach's music, didn't even realize until now how heavily composers of that time relied on a set of rules which are soo different from tonics and doiminants (roman numeral analysis should be a correct name) approach, and how beautiful the results of applying that rules can be, and even give some ideas for us maybe And that revelation would be impossible of course without the efforts of EMS creators, I'm so thankful to you for having ability to understand all that things for free and in an incredibly entertaining way😍
Hey, i have one question that i can't find the answer for anywhere. How do i tune my instrument to "well temperament"(Valloti's temperament)? Where can i find what are the frequencies of every note in that temperament? I'd much appreciate your answer:) Bye
I have a question: Is there a name for that little ornament that you often hear on the ultimate (take e.g. the very last cadence of Tallis' Lamentations), where instead of resting on the major third, the voice goes like 4-3-2-3? I've always wondered if there was a term for that, because it's sooo common throughout renaissance vocal music.
Lesson 1. This is slightly out of my pay grade, so I'll probably have to watch this several times. You said dolor was the word for sorrow in latin? But isn't it also pain? Is there a change in meaning with the context? I only studied latin at medical school.
This video was a great help in composing my early baroque style batalla! Thanks Elam Rotem! You can listen to it here: ua-cam.com/video/ZSFFhsL005k/v-deo.html The score is in the description.
I had wanted this type of training in high school, but the instructor never seemed to go in this direction. Or maybe their terminology did not inspire me to see these things.
Now that's a dope cadence
This is by far the best music channel in UA-cam.
second best, robert gjerdingen's is the best : P
Defiantly in the top 5!

7:02 this sounds so good!
i love this cadenza!
For the descending stepwise, I would have loved to hear those weird keys. I am in love with them.
Okay, with the moving in 3rds idea i'm tempted to replicate Giant Steps now.

Thank you so much for these excellent resources! I am always so thrilled when you release a new video or write-up! Best wishes for everyone's health and safety
Great explanation of something I've heard and played many times and not really given much thought to!
This channel is so insanely good. The script, presentation, information, animation... and the music!
Cool video as usual! I really liked the sound of the example at 6:32 with descending whole tones.
Note to self:
1:07 The basic Cadenza Doppia
5:39 Intoduction to the five variants
5:52 #1 - Going in circles
7:44 #2 - Descending stepwise
8:53 #3 - Ascending stepwise
9:52 #4 - Descend by thirds
10:33 #5 Moving the bass during cadences

Thanks a lot for sharing your deep knowledge with us.
Great! Thank you so much for share it. Greetings from Argentina. Take care
Can you make a video that covers the difference between “sesquialtera” and “triple”?
Check the video about proportions

Well explained! Thank You

Yeah, his harpsichord is tuned down a half-step.
Best musical Channel ever!
Bravo. Fascinating and full of insights.

כל כך מעניין ומועבר מושלם עילם יקר!
Brilliant and informative as always!
That was excellent. Thanks Elam. I wish i had known all, of this before my degree
Thanks Elam, another amazing video. Stay safe!

Thank you for very interesting video, happy Easter!
Very good video. You explained really well. Keep going

You are the must on UA-cam.
Thank you so much as always
YOU ARE THE BEST, ELAM!
These are great. Now supporting you on Patreon.
Any counterpoint convention which violates the standard rules can be safely said to be used "because it sounds good." Lol
Brilliant as usual. Oh, and thanks for uploading your edition of Cavalieri to IMSLP. I have a couple hours of studying ahead of me, it seems.
Excellent video !! Grazie mille)))
To me, those cadences where they don't prepare the dissonance sounds really good for some reason, like the one at 11:40
I love those unprepared cadenza doppia
Awesome !!!
I like cadenza doppia
Watch out for those naughty composers. I'm also glad to see you posting and I trust being safe during these days of coronavirus.
:-) definitely enjoyable 😂 - tyvm
I've never encountered the Ascending Stepwise variant at 9:00 as it suspends a dissonance according to species counterpoint!
I was so expecting a double cadence on the familiar sound clip! Lovely video nonetheless
Ha Ha I like that description of Monteverdi - "some particularly naughty composer".
Those cadence are dope aaaaaaa I can't bear this uwuness
The coolest of the 5 cool things is descending by thirds.
Hi Elam, do you have any plans to record Cavalieri's Lamentations? I would be extremely interested.
Hey, i have one question that i can't find the answer for anywhere. How do i tune my instrument to "well temperament"(Valloti's temperament)? Where can i find what are the frequencies of every note in that temperament?
I'd much appreciate your answer:)
Bye
Deer Elam, you're having too much fun with your animations 😉 (keep em coming) what software(s) do you use to make your videos?
Thanks. The software is After effects.
Naughty montiverdi. Great!
Will you get into partimento anytime?
Amazing! :-))

I guess it works like a turn, so maybe a grupetto ? or a glosa in Renaissance music ?
Lesson 1. This is slightly out of my pay grade, so I'll probably have to watch this several times. You said dolor was the word for sorrow in latin? But isn't it also pain? Is there a change in meaning with the context? I only studied latin at medical school.
6:23 How can that still be called a cantizans if you changed its direction and interval?
You are right. It's like an evaded cadence; it starts like a cadence and then it goes away from it.
@@EarlyMusicSources Thank you
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oh nice video, more videos about progresions please, dont forget to put the score hehehhe
Recognize it if ending three bars on the penultima and leaving the ultima to stand alone on the last bar.
he... he knows we're not on earlymusicsources.com right?

The parallel sevenths sound off. I am not sure why would someone write such an impure interval in such a pure Renaissance epoque.
maybe our idea of the "pure Renaissance" period should be revised?
I notice that Blue Pig is wearing a face mask against coronovirus!
I had wanted this type of training in high school, but the instructor never seemed to go in this direction. Or maybe their terminology did not inspire me to see these things.
Again I am made smarter.
it annoys me this channel is called early music sources. the last 500 years arent early. maybe early modern, but still modern.
Hi! Would you mind if I ask you with which videos I can begin with having little to no knowledge of contrapunctual theory ?
Allan belkin has achannel in which there are some great vids about counter point!
@@tacos1337 thank u very mucb
ArtOfCounterpoint has tutorials too.
@@Omega3131t thanks will have a look!
