 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia - BACH motifIn music, the BACH motif is the sequence of notes B flat, A, C, B natural.
This four-note motif has been used by a number of composers, usually as a homage to Johann Sebastian Bach. The first known example, however, is in a piece by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck—it is possible, though not certain, that he used it in homage to one of Johann Sebastian's ancestors, many of whom were themselves musicians.
The possibility of being able to spell the surname Bach in this way comes about because in German B indicates what in English is called B flat, while H indi ...

 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia II - Requiem - The Roman Catholic serviceThis use of the word requiem comes from the opening words of the Introit: Requiem æternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis. (Grant them eternal rest, O Lord, and may everlasting light shine upon them.) The requiem mass differs from the ordinary mass in omitting certain joyful passages such as the Gloria, Credo, and Alleluia, and by the addition the sequence Dies Iræ.
The regular texts of the musical portions to be found in the Roman Catholic liturgy, laid down at the Tridentine Council, are the follo ...

 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia II - Secular Jewish culture - Literary and artistic cultureIn some places where there have been relatively high concentrations of Jews, distinct secular Jewish subcultures have arisen. For example, ethnic Jews formed an enormous proportion of the literary and artistic life of Vienna, Austria at the end of the 19th century, or of New York City 50 years later (and Los Angeles in the mid-late 20th century), and for the most part these were not particularly religious people. In general, however, Jewish artistic culture in various periods reflected the culture in which they lived ...

 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia II - Contemporary classical music - Movements in contemporary music
Contemporary classical music - Modernism.
Main article: Modernism (music)
Many of the key figures of the high modern movement are alive, or only recently deceased and there is also still an extremely active core of composers, performers and listeners who continue to advance the ideas and forms of Modernism. Elliot Carter is still active, for example, as is Lukas Foss. While high modernist schools of composing, such as serialism are no longer as rhetorically central, the contemporary period is beginning the process of sorti ...

 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia II - Serialism - History of serial musicThe serialization of rhythm, dynamics etc developed after the Second World War by arguing that the twelve-tone music of Arnold Schoenberg and his followers of the Second Viennese School had serialized pitch, and was partly fostered by the work of Olivier Messiaen and his analysis students, including Karel Goeyvaerts and Boulez, in post-war Paris. Twelve-tone music is regarded by some as a sub-category of serialism, and by others serialism is seen as an outgrowth of twelve-tone music.

 |  |  | Alfred Schnittke: Encyclopedia II - Postmodern music - The postmodern musical style
Postmodern music - Modernist influences and postmodern philosophy.
In the modern period, recording of music was seen as a way of transcribing an external event, as a photograph is supposed to record a moment in time. However, with the invention of magnetic tape in the 1930's the ability to directly edit a recording, and create a result which did not actually occur, made it possible for a recording to be viewed as the end product of artistic work itself. Through the 1950's, most music, even popular music, presented itself as the capturing of a performance, even if t ...
