"[I]mpressive collection of essays by leading scholars in the field...thisengaging collection of essays, in demonstrating the importance of a moreintegrated approach to the musico-poetic aspects of these works, succeeds alsoin showing ways in which comparative studies of motets might be profitablypursued in the future."--Journal of the American Musicological Society, "The concept behind Hearing the Motet inspired scholars to contribute a diverse array of essays representing major currents in motet research and detailing significant findings about composers, works, chronology, contexts, and interpretive strategies. The book also contains a number ofinclusive speculations--most notably on matters pertaining to the liturgical function of motets and on details of specific interpretations--as well as suggestions for further research, indicating that the future of motet research is wide-open and vital....In an era of increasing specialization,[this book] offers those interested in medieval and Renaissance motets a chance to see beyond the limits of a particular repertory and benefit from a rich cross-fertilization of ideas and approaches."--Notes, "...one is constantly struck by the high levels of musical andintellectual engagement with the subject matter, and just how much there is totake away and re-use from each of the essays in the collection....Hearing theMotet is a valuable collection of essays; it has been carefully assembled and iswell planned and well edited.

Synopsis
The motet was unquestionably one of the most important vocal genres from its inception in late twelfth-century Paris through the Counter-Reformation and beyond. Heard in both sacred and secular contexts, the motet of the Middle Ages and Renaissance incorporated a striking wealth of meaning, its verbal textures dense with literary, social, philosophic, and religious reference. In Hearing the Motet , top scholars in the field provide the fullest picture yet of the motet's "music-poetic" nature, investigating the virtuosic interplay of music and text that distinguished some of the genre's finest work and reading individual motets and motet repertories in ways that illuminate their historical and cultural backgrounds. How were motets heard in their own time? Did the same motet mean different things to different audiences? To explore these questions, the contributors go beyond traditional musicological methods, at times invoking approaches used in recent literary criticism. Providing as well a cutting-edge look at performance questions and works by composers such as Josquin, Willaert, Obrecht, Byrd, and Palestrina, the book draws a valuable new portrait of the motet composer. Here, intriguingly, the motet composer emerges as a "reader" of the surrounding culture--a musician who knew liturgical practice as well as biblical literature and its exegetical traditions, who moved in social contexts such as humanist gatherings, who understood numerical symbolism and classical allusion, who wrote subtle memorie for patrons, and who found musical models to emulate and distort. Fresh, broad-ranging, and unique, Hearing the Motet makes vital reading for scholars, performers, and students of medieval and Renaissance music, and anyone else with an interest in the musical culture of these periods. Contributors include Rebecca A. Baltzer, Margaret Bent, M. Jennifer Bloxam, David Crook, James Haar, Paula Higgins, Joseph Kerman, Patrick Macey, Craig Monson, Robert Nosow, Jessie Ann Owens, Dolores Pesce, Joshua Rifkin, Anne Walters Robertson, Richard Sherr, and Rob C.

Wegman., This comprehensive collection of essays offers a paradigm of the scholarly and analytical approaches toward the motet in its most varied incarnations from the thirteenth to the seventeenth centuries. Featuring essays from leading scholars in the field, including Paula Higgins, Craig Monson, Patrick Macey, Anne Robertson, Jessie Ann Owens, Meg Bent, and Joshua Rifkin, it offers insightful readings of specific motets or motet repertoires and a broad-ranging analysis of the function and context of the motet in the middle ages and renaissance.
