About This Item
1739 MUSIC 1ed Cantus Firmus Theory Gregorian Chant Italian Palermo Canto Fermo
An exceedingly rare and desirably 18th-century Italian history of the cantus firmus. In music composition, particularly in medieval Gregorian Chant, the cantus firmus is the melody used for any given piece of music. In the 18th-century, Italian composer and music historian Filippo lo Piccolo wrote a music theory book on how to use and harmonize the cantus firmus. This book, "Il canto fermo esposto" was published in Palermo by Angelo Felicella and is utterly filled with music examples throughout!
Interestingly, this work is not found at all in the OCLC – a very rare 18th-century music theory text!
