Synopsis
Contributing Authors

This volume contains a study on the musical aspects of Coptic liturgy, the music of Egypts Christian community, focusing on the melodies of the psalmodies for analyses and musical transcriptions. The first part consists of a concise overview of Coptic musical history, an introduction to psalmodies, and examples of contemporary musical notations. The second part provides analyses of various melodies utilized in the psalmodies and a comparison of different interpretations. The third and final part contains the transcriptions of the analyzed melodies in Western musical notation. An accompanying CD provides selected examples of sung psalmodies.

Der vorliegende Band ist eine Arbeit zu musikalischen Aspekten der Koptischen Liturgie, die Musik der christlichen Gemeinschaft Agyptens. Die Musik einer der altesten christlichen Kulturen wird in der koptologischen sowie musikologischen Literatur nur wenig erwahnt und oft sogar ganz weggelassen. Aus den reichhaltigen Melodien der koptischen liturgischen Musik wurden die Melodien der Psalmodia gewahlt zu Analysen und musikalischen Transkriptionen. Die verschiedenen kirchlichen Festtage kennzeichnen sich durch verschiedene Melodien auf denselben Texten. Die Arbeit ist dreiteilig und besteht im ersten Teil aus einer kurzen Ubersicht uber die koptische Musikgeschichte, einer Einfuhrung in das nachtlichen Ritual Psalmodia mit ihren verschiedenen Auffuhrungen, aus Gesprachen mit Teilnehmern an dem Ritual Psalmodia, einer Literaturubersicht und Notationsbeispielen zeitgenossischer Ausfuhrenden. Der zweite Teil enthalt die Analysen der verschiedenen Festtagsmelodien, die in der Psalmodia zur Verwendung kommen. Verschiedene Interpretationen werden miteinander verglichen. Auffallend an den Analysen sind die musikalischen Formeln aus denen die verschiedenen Melodien wie mit farbigen Mosaiksteinen zusammengestellt sind und die Positionen an denen sie in den Melodien gefunden wurden. Im dritten Teil befinden sich die Transkriptionen der analysierten Melodien in westlicher Musiknotation. Auf einer dazu gefugten CD ist eine Auswahl der Gesange zu horen, wobei historische Aufnahmen abgewechselt werden mit Aufnahmen wahrend der Zeremonien oder mit Tonbandern, die Kantoren fur ihre Studenten zu Studienzwecken aufgenommen haben.
