CIRCULATING MUSICAL KNOWLEDGE IN EARLY SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY GERMANY: MUSICA POETICA TREATISES OF JOHANN HERMANN SCHEIN AND MICHAEL ALTENBURG IN THE LIBRARY OF JOHANN CASPAR TROST
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 September 2016
Abstract
Recent research on the library of Johann Caspar Trost the Elder, organist in Halberstadt, has led to the identification of a manuscript with two unknown treatises on musica poetica, one a lost treatise by Johann Hermann Schein and the other an unknown treatise by Michael Altenburg. Together they offer fresh insights into the learning and teaching of music in the early modern period. The books once owned by Trost also have close connections to his personal and professional life. This article situates the newly discovered manuscript in the framework of book history and Trost’s biography, and discusses the two treatises against the background of contemporary books of musical instruction (Calvisius, Lippius, or Finolt). The historical context of the manuscript, its theoretical sources and its origins all serve to contribute to and further the current understanding of musical education in early modern central Germany. An edition of the treatises is provided.

Footnotes
We are very much indebted to Jill Bepler and Matthew Laube for commenting on an earlier draft and for helping to improve our English prose. Thanks are also due to Christoph Boveland and Jessica Back for valuable information about books featuring Trost’s provenance marks, and to Louis Delpech for setting the music examples. Research on the Trost library was carried out in the project ‘Early Modern Scholars’ Libraries’, undertaken by Dietrich Hakelberg as part of the research network MWW (Marbach Weimar Wolfenbüttel) and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, www.mww-forschung.de/. The research of Inga Mai Groote was supported by a grant from the Herzog August Bibliothek Wolfenbüttel.

30 As the Musica theoretica editions from Trost’s library are present in Franz Dominikus Häberlin’s catalogue of the Helmstedt university library from 1771, the acquisition of the collection must have taken place earlier; see D-W, Bibliotheksarchiv, BA III, 75–99: Catalogus Bibliothecae Academ.

35 The most relevant source for the early Trost family history is an obituary and invitation to the funeral by Johannes Zeisold, rector of Jena University, printed as a broadside on the occasion of Caspar Trost’s death on 26 July 1651: Rector Academiae Ienensis Johannes Zeisoldus M.

([Jena]: Caspar Freyschmid, 1651) (VD17 39:151271U). In contrast, the biographical data provided recently by D.

70 Mattheson specifies the content as: the nature of music, the combination of sounds (which may have to be interpreted as the description of intervals), cadences, periods, clefs, pauses and imitation (that is, notation and structuring), as well as the modes; see Mattheson, Ehren-Pforte, p. 243.

89 For a thorough discussion, see Rivera, B., German Music Theory in the Early 17th Century: The Treatises of Johannes Lippius (Studies in Musicology, 17; Ann Arbor, 1980)Google Scholar. Lippius defended three disputations in Wittenberg (1609/10) and presided over a number of musical disputations in Jena (1610–14).

91 The distinction generatim/speciatim (‘in a general way’/‘in a special way’) possibly also reflects other instances of musica generalis/specialis dichotomies, but there it usually designates the distinction between general principles and qualities of music and specific aspects of composition; see, e.g., Rivera, German Music Theory, pp. 14–15, for the layout of Lippius’s Synopsis.

94 Calvisius, Melopoiia (1592), sig. I2r (ch. 18): ‘Ita musicus, nisi exercitatissimus sit in inflectendis consonantiis, nequaquam in quolibet Modo, pari facilitate, eosdem quos sententia requirit, affectus producere poterit.’
95 This accentuation can especially be observed in the Musicae epitome ex Glareani Musica and Uß Glareani musick ein ußzug (Basel, 1557/1559) and in subsequent German writers advocating the twelve-mode system; see Groote, I. M., ‘Musikalische Poetik nach Melanchthon und Glarean’, Archiv für Musikwissenschaft, 70 (2013), pp. 227–253 Google Scholar. Zarlino also discussed the sad and cheerful qualities of different modes; on the situation around 1600, see Lester, J., Between Modes and Keys: German Theory 1592–1802 (Stuyvesant, NY, 1989)Google Scholar, ch. 2.
