Beschreibung
This is the first historical study of rehearsal in classical music, a subject that includes much important and illuminating information about the ways in which musicians and composers have prepared for performances, whether public, domestic or liturgical. The relevant elements involved in these private processes can be surprisingly broad, including notation, transmission, education, employment, social hierarchies, venues, ensemble layout and even lighting, and the documentary sources include letters, journals, memoirs, institutional regulations, disciplinary records, comments from theorists, journalistic reviews, anecdotes, interviews and recordings. The book is divided into a themed examination of music to 1800, then a chronological narrative up to the present day, followed by discussions of rehearsal research, the impact of technology and comparisons with rehearsal practices in the other performing arts.

Francis Knights is a musicologist, writer and performer specializing in Renaissance and Baroque repertoire. He is Co-Director of the project Formal Methods in Musicology and several other research projects. As an early keyboard player, his recent recital series have included the complete Tudor keyboard repertoire, and all of Bach's organ and clavier works. [...]

Pablo Padilla is Professor of Mathematics at the National University of Mexico, and has research interests in nonlinear differential equations and dynamical systems as well as in mathematical methods applied to music, to biology, economics, finance and sustainability. He is Co-Director of the project Formal Methods in Musicology. [...]
