This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1855 Excerpt: ...in the second and third notes, by syncopation, as the third note, c, is continued for two divisions, while the fourth note, b, is only continued for one division. Such licences constantly occur in strettos. The third NB, in the twenty-ninth bar, under the a in the alto, points out, that it is permitted to double a major third, when it is the third or sixth tone of a major scale, or the sixth tone of a minor scale. The fourth NB, in the thirty-fifth bar, on the tenor note, g, points out a necessary licence, by which the stretto is made a note lower than it ought regularly to be. The fifth NB, in the thirty-ninth bar, on the bound bass note, e, points out, that the penultimate note of the subject may, like others, be lengthened or shortened in a stretto. The sixth NB, in the last bar, on f& in the alto, points out, that, in minor keys, the major third may be used as a final termination, being more satisfactory; but if the conclusion be not final, the minor third is regidar and necessary. When, however, the music which follows ascends a perfect fourth, the major third is also tolerated--for instance, in the last example, should G minor or major follow. We must also examine the threefold contractions of the principal subject, made by the three upper parts on the pedal point of a in the bass, throughout which cjt is used by licence instead of c. Sometimes the counter-subject or intervening subject, after being often re-produced, is contracted in this manner before the concluding cadence. These artifices serve to prolong a fugue, and are always appropriate ornaments to this style of writing. per noi Bern pre, per noi seru-pre se veg-liail Sig-nor, fie veg-lia il Sig-nor! Ex. 897.
