• W7672789 abstract "This thesis examines the emergence, decline and re-emergence of thetrombone as relating to its use within ensemble music of the seventeenth andeighteenth centuries. It consists of three chapters which include a historicalstudy into the technical development of the trombone, the growth ofperformance practices pertaining to th~ instrument and the usage of thetrombone within ensembles during this period.The thesis begins with a discussion on the general knowledge of thetrombone's early history and physical development which is mainly drawnfrom secondary sources. It is concerned with the great Ni.imburg instrumentmanufacturing families, trombone construction specifications and the workingmechanics of the instrument.The second chapter involves a study on the development of the trombone'stechnical growth in relation to range, technical facility and its ability to controlvolume, intonation and tone colour. A~so contained is an examination ofarticulation and ornamentation practices that were likely to be employed bytrombonists during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The chaptercontinues with investigation of the various soloistic practices of the instrument.These are supported with musical examples taken from primary sources dealing with topics covering the instrument's vocal sound, technical ability and its employment by baroque and classical composers.The third and final chapter of the thesis contains a detailed description oftrombone ensemble practices, based on research from primary sources. Theseinclude the trombone's participation in the brilliant Venetian polychoral musicas well as it's use in the major vocal works of the mid- to late Baroque. It alsocovers the instrument's involvement in Baroque opera, oratorio and vocalchamber works. The chapter continues on with a discussion on the role of thetrombone within purely instrumental groups such as Stadtpfeifer, court andchurch ensembles.The final section of chapter three contains a thorough investigation dealingwith the decline and resurgence of the trombone from mid-seventeenth to thelate eighteenth century. Included is a careful consideration of possible reasons ,behind the decline in the instrument's usage as well as its continued survivalduring this period. Supporting this section is a study of the trombone'spresence in the works of Handel, Mozart and Gluck. The chapter concludeswith a brief statement on the importance of trombone usage within theMoravian Church of eighteenth century colonial America.This study arrives at a clearer understanding of the trombone'sdevelopment, importance, and usage during the seventeenth and eighteenthcenturies. Four general conclusions are reached. First, the trombone due to itssuperior construction was able to meet the high musical standards defined bythe early Baroque thus ensuring the instrument's high position of honour.Second, due to this honoured position, trombonists experienced great growth inthe area of technical facility encouraging composers of the Baroque to includethe instrument in many of their works. Third, the trombone's close associationwith religious music was undoubtedly a major cause for its decline and theinstrument was only saved from total obscurity by early eighteenth-centuryViennese court composers. These were men who both valued the trombone's reputation and realised its potential. Finally the trombone actually flourished in a few localities during a time when many historians considered theinstrument to be obsolete.It is hoped that this study will contribute to the resurgent interest in thetrombone's historical involvement during the seventeenth and eighteenthcenturies." @default.
