This pattern is so named because of its use primarily by English composers of the High Renaissance and Restoration periods. The hallmark of this device is the dissonant augmented octave produced by a split seventh scale degree English cadence from which this definition has been taken English captions sometimes called surtitles or supratitles, translations of the sung words generated electronically during the opera performance. first introduced in the early 1980's, surtitles revolutionized opera going, opening it up to new audiences by making the stories and emotions accessible Opera Glossary from which this definition has been taken English ceilidh also known in England as 'barndance', has many things in common with the Scottish/Irish social dance tradition. The dance figures are similar but English tunes tend to be slower and accentuate the beat English concertina a fully chromatic instrument having buttons in a rectangular arrangement of four staggered rows, with the short side of the rectangle addressing the wrist. The instrument is unisonoric, that is, press and draw on each button yield the same note English concertina from which this extract has been taken English countenance Martin le Franc (c.1410-1461), a French poet of the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance, is famous in music history for penning the phrase la contenance angloise, the English countenance, a much-debated reference to a characteristically English sound found in the music of composers such as John Dunstaple. The 'countenance' - probably consonant, sweet sounds which were predominant in the music of contemporary English composers - was massively influential on the music of the Burgundian School during the period that Burgundy was allied with England. Specifically, the 'English countenance' is probably a reference to Dunstaple's stylistic trait of using full triadic harmony, along with a liking for thirds and sixths Martin le Franc from which part of this extract has been taken English country dance for the most part, the development of dance styles in the seventeenth century is obscure. Sources for the first quarter-century are often difficult to understand; by the last quarter the Baroque style has already come into being. In England, however, the publication of Playford's English Dancing Master in 1651 provides our first major source for the country dance, which soon achieved lasting popularity in the ballroom and even now remains England's principal contribution to the international repertoire of social dance. In the eighteenth century, this English style led to the development of Scottish country dance as we know it today Evidence for English Country Dances in the Sixteenth Century The Early Dance Circle from which the extract above has been taken English Country Dance English Country Dance Terms English Country Dance including a glossary of terms English dance see anglais, anglaise English dissonance also called 'false relation' or 'cross-relation', a harmonic effect in Western tonal music, in which a note (usually the third degree of the scale) precedes the same note flattened by a semitone in a different part in the following chord False Relation from which this information has been taken English fingering a system of fingering for the recorder, also called 'baroque fingering' the term 'baroque fingering' when applied to the recorder should not be confused with any of the non-standard fingerings that might have been used on instruments surviving from the 15th-18th centuries, generally called 'historical fingerings'. The term 'baroque fingering', when used today, normally refers to a system used by Arnold Dolmetsch for his own recorders which has now been widely adopted by most major recorder-making firms, including those based in Germany Recorder Fingerings found in music written for the piano, the recommended fingerings appear as the numbers 1 to 4 and the letter 'x' for the thumb number finger to be used x thumb 1 index 2 middle 3 ring 4 small English flageolet see flageolet English flute the recorder English folk music a term that encompasses both the traditional and its more modern continuation. In fact the two types are differentiated through the use of the two terms, 'contemporary folk music' and 'living tradition'. Although sometimes used interchangeably, they differ in their semantic ranges. 'Contemporary folk music' encompasses music strictly connected with the tradition as well as all forms of transformed folk music or where it has been mixed with other genres, e.g. with jazz. 'Contemporary folk music' is traditional music but includes music that is closer to 'pop'. The term 'living tradition' is a much narrower concept denoting the modern continuation of a long tradition. The music has strong ties with ancient folk music either through stylistic elements or through a choice of repertoire that functions as part of an ancient musical tradition. Thus, this is music where old songs are still performed in the traditional manner while the musicians are also free to create new ones that conserve many of the elements from the past English folk and traditional music on the Internet English handbells sets of tuned bells rung by hand, whose original purpose in the seventeenth century was to permit the private practicing of change ringing before moving into a church tower.

A. Fuller Maitland. His book English Music in the nineteenth century (London, 1902) is subdivided thus: 'Book I: Before the Renaissance (1801-1850); Book II: The Renaissance (1851-1900)'. Parry and Stanford are shown here as the saviours of English music. Sullivan, though, is not worthy to enter the temple of high art because 'the taste of the average man was what he sought to meet.' Fuller Maitland, admittedly writing in 1902, notably assigns less than one page to Elgar, and his final verdict on Sullivan is that 'He took no part whatever in the work of the renaissance.' As will be seen, this last statement is true, but in reaching it Fuller Maitland introduces an element of venom into his prose which mars his own reliability as a critic. There is almost no length to which he will not go to denigrate every aspect of Sullivan's art. At one point he writes: 'That the man who wrote the concerted pieces of The Mikado should have brought himself to be acknowledged as the composer of such songs as 'Will he come?', 'Let me dream again', or another in which the complaint that 'the gravy's cold' seems to be iterated [...] and reiterated [...] is hardly credible.' Victorian Values from which this extract has been taken English percussive dance there are various noise-making English dances that include 'clogging' (with wooden shoes), 'sword dances' (using with flexible steel or wooden swords) and 'Morris dancing' (with bells) English pipes bagpipes were played throughout much of Europe from the thirteenth century onwards with many regions still continuing their own piping traditions. Northumbria is the only region in England that has retained an unbroken bagpipe tradition, though it is clear that for centuries a wide variety of different types of pipes had been played throughout the country. With the death in the mid-nineteenth century of the piper John Hunsley of Manton, Lincolnshire, the last of these English bagpipes fell silent.

The distinction is important in how the note would be played on an unaccompanied non-fixed pitch instrument such as the violin Enharmonics Enharmonic Enharmonic change the respelling of a note by replacing it with its enharmonic equivalent, for example, A flat instead of G sharp. This may be necessary when correctly spelling a chord after a modulation to a new key the adjustment of the tuning of a note on a stringed or wind instrument according to whether the note is A flat or G sharp, notes which in equal temperament would be the same, but which under just intonation will be different Enharmonic chords chords that, in equal temperament, sound the same but differ in the spelling of their notes Enharmonic diesis see diesis Enharmonic fingerings certain 17th and 18th century wind-instrument methods offer different fingerings for enharmonic notes, for example, distinguishing a slightly flatter D# from a slightly sharper Eb. One such example is the fingering chart that forms part of Thomas Stanesby jnr's A new System of the Flute A'Bec or Common English Flute published in 1732 Enharmonic genus in ancient Greek theory, one of the three basic type of genus, with a characteristic interval of approximately a 'major 3rd' at the top of the tetrachord, then 2 successive intervals of approximately a 'quarter-tone' at the bottom, making up a 4/3, 'perfect 4th', the term enharmonic referring to the presence of microtonal intervals Enharmonic - section 2. Enharmonic intervals two intervals are considered to be enharmonic if they both contain the same pitches spelled in different ways; that is, if the notes in the two intervals are enharmonic with one another. Enharmonic intervals contain the same number of semitones Enharmonic keys keys that on an instrument tuned to equal-temperament, sound the same but are written differently, for example, the major keys of G flat and F sharp , B and C flat, D sharp and E flat, A sharp and B flat, E sharp and F , G sharp and A flat, C sharp and D flat. Enharmonic modulation where there is no audible change of key (at least not in equal temperament) but a chord is rewritten using enharmonic equivalents. There are two main types of enharmonic modulations: dominant seventh/augmented sixth, and diminished seventh. By respelling the notes, any dominant seventh can be reinterpreted as a German or Italian sixth (depending on whether or not the fifth is present), and any diminished seventh chord can be respelled in multiple other ways to form other diminished seventh chords Modulation Modulation Enharmonic notes see 'enharmonic' Enharmónico (Spanish) enharmonic Enharmonic piano one of the instruments invented by the Futurist Luigi Russolo (1885-1947) which were all destroyed in Paris, France during World War II. The enharmonic piano (1931) was Russolo's last experimental instrument built during his time in Paris.

Verdi took up the challenge by using the scale as a basis for a motet in sixteenth-century style on the traditional Ave Maria text. The scale first appears in the bass line and it is followed in progression by the alto, tenor, and soprano lines.

The proclamation, by the central figures of the Enlightment, of the autonomy of reason and the methods of the natural sciences based on observation as the sole reliable method of knowledge, and the consequent rejection of the authority of revelation, sacred writings and their accepted interpreters, tradition, prescription, and every form of nonrational and transcendent sources of knowledge, was naturally opposed by the churches and religious thinkers of many persuasions.

The characteristic change in amplitude throughout time which all sounds possess. The envelope of a sound has a number of features: whether it sustains like a bowed violin string; whether it decays like a plucked violin string or a single strike of a drum; and how quickly the sound reaches its fullest intensity - how the sound "attacks". While the envelope of any specific sound has specific characteristics determined by the way the sound was generated, it should be realised that real sounds occur in real situations and the envelope of a sound will change according to the environment it occupies. A clave in a cave may appear (what is the sonic equivalent of the eye-based "appear"?) to have a longer envelope than when it is played in the open air Studio Musician's Jargonbuster from which most of this extract has been taken Envelope follower an electronic circuit used in musical environments to detect the amplitude variations of an incoming sound and to produce a control signal that resembles those variations Envelope follower from which this extract has been taken Envelope generator Studio Musician's Jargonbuster Enveloppe (French f.) envelope, covering, casing (technical) (German f.) envelope (curve forming tangent) Enveloppe ADSR (French f.) see 'ADSR' envelopper (French) to wrap, to wrap up, to envelop (figurative) envenimer (French) to embitter en venir à (French) to come to (conclusion, question, etc.) en venir aux mains (French) to come to blows en vente (French) on sale (at a special price), for sale Envergure (French f.) wing-span, scope (breadth, range), calibre (quality) Envers (French m., German m.) wrong side (material), reverse side (material) envers (French) toward, towards, to en virtu de (French) by virtue of enviable (French) enviable enviar (Spanish) to send enviar una carta por avión (Spanish) to send a letter by airmail Envie (French f.) desire, wish, envy envier (French) to envy Envieux (m.), Envieuse (f.)
