The art and science of canon in the music of early 17th-century Rome

该项目旨在调查17世纪早期罗马作曲家对音乐经典的培养，并评估这些作品中的实验精神如何与当代科学思想相联系。该项目将使用创新的计算工具来识别音乐经典中的作曲选择。它将调查17世纪早期科学思想产生的创造性力量是如何激励这些选择的。该项目旨在改变对这一曲目的历史和美学理解，并重塑关于这一时期音乐优先事项的当前叙事。这将大大有助于理解17世纪早期科学、艺术和音乐进步之间的关系。

This project aims to investigate the cultivation of musical canons by early 17th-century Roman composers and assess how the spirit of experimentation in these compositions relates to contemporary scientific thought. The project will use innovative computational tools to identify compositional choices in musical canon. It will investigate how creative forces arising from early 17th-century scientific thought motivated these choices. The project intends to transform historical and aesthetic understanding of this repertoire and reshape current narratives about the musical priorities of this period. This will significantly benefit understanding of the relationship between advances in the sciences, arts and music in the early 17th century.
