The theory of “music of the spheres” (musicamundana) introduced by Boethius in his treaty De institutione musica is an original contribution in development of mediaeval theory of music. However, it’s roots trace back to the Greek antiquity. When considering the sources of medieval theory of musicamundana, one shall underline three most important sources: (1) mythology with its complex cosmogony (esp. by Homer and Hesiod), (2) early cosmology by pre-Socratic philosophers (incl. Anaximander, Heraclit), (3) Pythagorean school. Despite of the fact that idea of the music of the spheres – as presented by the Pythagoreans – was criticized by Aristotle in his De caelo, it became one of the most inﬂ uential cosmological concept. One of the most important periods – from the point of view of the reception of discussed theory – is the twelfth century. It is often called the aetas Boethiana as it is distinguished by an increased interest in the works of Boethius, with special emphasis on his theological writings and Consolatio, which was very popular at the time. The reason behind this phenomenon was a growing specialization of issues relating to the theory of music, which ﬁ nally led to its independence from the other areas of knowledge; yet this is not the only reason why the subject of the harmony of the spheres was again widely discussed in philosophical circles. An essential factor was the development of Neo-platonic philosophical schools, such as the famous School of Chartres. The interest in natural sciences in the School of Chartres and later in the Oxford School made the scientists of the time focus on the works of authors whose ideas were essential to the concept of the harmony of the spheres, among them such philosophers as Calcidius, Macrobius and Boethius

During the lifetime of Bach such disciplines as harmony and thoroughbass were realized directly at the keyboard by the student, providing a solid foundation for later and more elaborate improvisatory skills – skills which were mandatory for all clavier players of that period. Unfortunately, the great majority of today’s Baroque counterpoint classes rely on the more academic process of committing notes to paper, thereby subjugating aural and performance skills. In this article, I propose amending music theory curricula with topics in baroque improvisation. To that end I will employ one of the most accessible variation forms from common practice music: the passacaglia.

This work is a study of Japan’s popular music and its theoretical aspects, as well as an analysis of the influence of jazz music on its development. It begins by defining Japanese music, then the history of music in Japan in the 20th century is outlined. Subsequent chapters are devoted to music theory, with particular emphasis on comparing the use of intervals and scales in Western and Japanese music. The work discusses the theory of Japanese scales, analyzing their structure and function in the context of modern Japanese music. The next chapter focuses on the popular music in Japan in the 21st century, while identifying its characteristic features. Special attention is given to the influence of jazz on the development of Japanese popular music and its presence in today’s musical culture. The final chapter compares mainstream popular music from Japan, Poland and the USA, showing the differences and similarities in styles, structure and use of musical elements. The paper ends with conclusions emphasizing the importance of understanding cultural and theoretical context in music research.

The handwritten copy of a hitherto unknown Polish-language plainchant handbook held in the Cistercian Fathers’ Library in Szczyrzyc (shelf mark S.II.8/2), produced in 1798 in Limanowa and entitled Nauka y praktyka muzyczna do używania uczącey się młodzi w Kollegiach Societatis Jesu za pozwoleniem starszych przełożona w Wilnie [The teaching and practice of music for the use of pupils of Jesuit colleges, translated in Vilnius with the permission of superiors] has been identified by the author of this article as a translation of the Jesuit Zygmunt Lauksmin’s handbook Ars et praxis musica. The latter was first published in 1667 in Vilnius, and later reissued twice (1669, 1693). Its reception has not been studied thus far. Of the three editions, only several copies have come down to us. The discovery of a Polish translation made during the last years of the eighteenth century, more than a hundred years after the print’s last edition, sheds new light on the history of the handbook and its impact, which extended beyond Jesuit circles and the Baroque era, and also on aspects of plainchant teaching during the early nineteenth century. Lauksmin’s treatise was addressed to pupils and students as an aid to mastering the practice of plainchant. The author included no theoretical commentary and limited himself to the absolute basics, as well as practical methodological guidelines. The Polish translation was prepared in a different historical reality and is one of the relatively few surviving examples of how Polish musical terminology took shape and evolved during the eighteenth century. Indirectly, it also represents the state of musical education at the time and shows that, due to the lack of contemporary handbooks, teachers turned to educational aids from the previous era, adapting them for their current local needs.

W bibliotece oo. Cystersów w Szczyrzycu, pod sygnaturą S.II.8/2, przechowywany jest rękopiśmienny egzemplarz nieznanego dotąd, polskojęzycznego podręcznika do nauki śpiewu chorałowego, sporządzony w 1798 r. w Limanowej i zatytułowany Nauka y praktyka muzyczna do używania uczącey się młodzi w Kollegiach Societatis Jesu za pozwoleniem starszych przełożona w Wilnie. Tekst ten zidentyfikowany został przez autorkę artykułu jako przekład traktatu Ars et praxis musica jezuity Zygmunta Lauksmina, wydanego w Wilnie w 1667 r. i dwukrotnie wznawianego w 1669 oraz 1693 roku. Recepcja wileńskiego podręcznika nie była do tej pory badana, a z trzech wydań zachowało się do dziś zaledwie kilka egzemplarzy. Odkrycie polskiego tłumaczenia sporządzonego w ostatnich latach XVIII w., a więc po ponad stu latach od ukazania się ostatniego wydania druku, w nowym świetle przedstawia zarówno dzieje wileńskiego podręcznika i jego oddziaływania, wykraczającego poza środowisko jezuickie i epokę baroku, jak również problemy nauczania śpiewu chorałowego u progu XIX wieku. Traktat Lauksmina był przeznaczony dla uczniów i studentów i miał być pomocą w praktycznym opanowaniu umiejętności śpiewu chorałowego, dlatego nie zawierał rozważań teoretycznych i ograniczał się jedynie do najbardziej podstawowych wiadomości oraz praktycznych wskazówek metodycznych. Tłumaczenie traktatu na język polski sporządzone w odmiennych już realiach historycznych, jest jednym ze stosunkowo niewielu zachowanych przykładów kształtowania się i ewoluowania polskiej terminologii muzycznej w XVIII wieku. Jest ono pośrednio także świadectwem ówczesnego stanu szkolnictwa muzycznego i braku nowoczesnych podręczników, który skłaniał do korzystania z materiałów dydaktycznych publikowanych jeszcze w poprzedniej epoce i przystosowywania ich do bieżących potrzeb lokalnych.
