Understanding the Beginings of Western Music-





In Reference to Chapter 17 in your book - Listen to Hildegard von Bingen: O Pastor Pnimarum (plainchant) and then to Michael Praetorius: Two Dance Clusters from Terpsichore. Write 3-4 paragraphs comparing and contrasting these two early works in Western Music. Who was Hildegard von Bingen and who was Michael Praetorius? When did they live and what was the purpose of the music that they wrote?
Due: Thursday October 21, 2010!

  1. The beauty of this music overcomes me. Thank you Mr. C. I'm anxiously awaiting Josquin!
