Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a historical account of the evolution of Catholic church music from the death of Palestrina to the present day. The author traces the gradual transformation of musical forms, styles, and conceptions of church music, greatly influenced by the increasing popularity of dramatic music, as well as the impact of instrumental music. The shift from strict adherence to the traditions of Palestrina's style to the incorporation of elements from opera and other secular forms is examined through the works of composers such as Allegri, Lotti, Caldara, and Marcello. The author also discusses the contributions of notable Italian, German, and French composers, highlighting the diversity and innovation that characterized this period in church music. This book offers valuable insights into the interplay between religious and secular influences in the development of musical forms and expressions, providing a comprehensive exploration of the rich history of Catholic church music.
