Hidden consecutiveshidden consecutives occur when two independent parts approach a single perfect fifth or an octave by similar motion instead of oblique or contrary motion. Conventional style dictates that such an interval, often called an exposed fifth or exposed octave, be avoided. But this is sometimes permitted under certain conditions, such as the following: the interval does not involve either the highest or the lowest part, the interval does not occur between both of those extreme parts, the interval is approached in one part by a semitone step, or the interval is approached in the higher part by step. The details differ considerably from period to period, and even among composers writing in the same period
Hidden fifthsapproaching fifths by similar motion can produce the same effect as approaching fifths by parallel motion. Adding a passing tone to a hidden fifth produces a parallel fifth, for example. Since the parallel fifth is implied by a missing note, approaching fifths by similar motion are called hidden fifths
Hidden octavesapproaching octaves by similar motion can produce the same effect as approaching octaves by parallel motion. Adding a passing tone to a hidden octave produces a parallel octave, for example. Since the parallel octave is implied by a missing note, approaching octaves by similar motion are called hidden octaves

Highland dancingthe term 'Highland dancing' is used today to refer to a style of athletic solo dancing which evolved into its current form during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in the context of competitions at public events (namely, Highland games), where it is typically performed to the accompaniment of bagpipe music. In some regions of the Scottish Highlands, Highland dancing formed the main part of social entertainment
the term is somewhat misleading, however, in that it is only one form of dancing to have been done in the Scottish Highlands and, in addition, it has been subject to many influences from outside the Scottish Highlands. For example, it has been heavily influenced by the urban aesthetics of the patrons and judges of dance competitions since the nineteenth century

Calypso, jazz, waltz and merengue were cross-pollinated with indigenous styles such as osibisiba and gome to form an infectious dance music. It reached its maximum popularity in the 1950s and 1960s in dance clubs throughout West Africa, the name mocking the high living lifestyle of its patrons

High modernisma belief that society is in a state of crisis and that mass culture is modernism's other, the spectre that haunts it, the threat against which high art has to shore up its terrain. The modernist aesthetic, so prominent this century in literature, music, architecture, the visual arts, so influential in cultural criticism and theory, should be seeb as a reaction formation. The modernist aesthetic defines itself by its opposition not only to bourgeois culture, but to the mass culture and entertainment which it sees not as a manifestation of the culture of the lower classes themselves but as the primary forms of bourgeois cultural articulation: the "essential enemy", the "bourgeois norm", as Barthes says in the 1970 preface to Mythologies. The modernist aesthetic must work by permanent contrast, it must never be contaminated by mass culture, nor should it be realist, that is, try and reflect everyday life. It must be self-referential, separate, pure

Hisperic Latinor Hiberno-Latin, a learned sort of Latin literature created and spread by Irish monks during the period from the sixth century to the tenth century. Notable for its curiously learned vocabulary, while neither Hebrew nor Greek was widely known in Europe during this period - and it is unlikely the Irish monks were fluent themselves - odd words from these sources, as well as from Celtic sources, were added to Latin vocabulary for effect. It has been suggested that the unique vocabulary of the poems was caused by the monks learning Latin words from dictionaries and glossaries, so as to mix together unfamiliar words with ordinary ones; unlike many others in Western Europe at the time, the Irish monks did not speak a language descended from Latin. During the sixth and seventh centuries, Irish monasticism spread through Christian Western Europe; Irish monks who founded these monasteries often brought with them Hiberno-Latin literary styles

Historical instrumentmany writers distinguish the terms 'historic instrument' and 'historical instrument'. The former refers to an original, the latter to a later reconstruction or 'copy'. The term 'copy', when applied to musical instruments raise,s its own problems as the examination of modern copies quickly demonstrates. Invariably, the 'copies' differ not only from the original but even from one another. In many cases, this is easy to understand. What makes a musical instrument is much more than the material from which it has been made or the sum of the skills used to fashion it. The important relationship between instrument and player too is very important and generally must be highly personal. In a similar way, every maker of a copy is drawn too into the complexities of that association so that the modern instrument is a reflection of the modern maker as much, if not more so, as that of the original maker

HistoricismHerder in his philosophy of history presented the first extensive formulation of historicist principles, and rejected the Enlightenment conception of a unilinear development of human civilization. Mankind was indeed one but, he maintained, this mankind can only be understood in its historical manifestations in diverse national cultures. Religion, philosophy, science, and art thus do not exist in any absolute sense; there are only the religions, philosophies, sciences, and arts of specific cultures at specific stages in their development. All cultures, Herder held, European and non-European, primitive and civilized are thus equally worthy of study, in a sense the primitive more so insofar as they are closer to the original genius of a people. Any attempts to use abstract tools of analysis to understand national cultures were mechanistic and unhistorical. History as life can only be grasped through empathy (Mitfühlen)

History of musicthe history of music has a long and complex history. It may predate language (and certainly predates the written word) and is found in every known culture, past and present, varying wildly between times and places. A culture's music is influenced by all other aspects of that culture, including social and economic organization, climate, and access to technology. The emotions and ideas that music expresses, the situations that music is played and listened to in, and the attitudes toward music players and composers all vary between regions and periods. "Music history" is the distinct subfield of musicology and history which studies music (particularly Western art music) from a chronological perspective

Hittite cultic musicone main element of Hittite rituals is the musical performances frequently mentioned in ritual literature. The sacred acts were accompanied by sacred words recited in a whispered or murmured tone, in metrical form, in responsorial antiphony of precentor and choir or in archaic foreign languages. Music and singing accompanied ritual acts such as the sacrifice, the libation, and the appearance of the king or the royal couple. The use of or ban on music were regulated by ritual instructions mentioning instruments, singing, recitation, and clapping. Most frequently lyres can be found, more rarely harps and lutes (chordophones), drums, different rattles, cymbals (idiophones, membranophones), double oboes, and horns (aerophones). Songs were performed by individuals or choirs, had diffentiating titles, and were sometimes attributed to particular deities. Music served for calling deities and entertaining them, for communication with them (trance), contact with the deceased, threatening enemies and encouraging fighters. It had an apotropaic, captivating, and erotic effect and was used to entertain feasting parties
