 Henry Purcell: a concise biography
Though he was to live a very short life (he died in 1695) he was able to enjoy and make full use of the renewed flowering of music after the Restoration of the Monarchy.
Most of Purcell's theatre music was written between 1690 and 1695 (the year of his death), and within that relatively brief period he supplied music for more than forty plays.
He was in the very midst of a tradition that not only permitted but actually encouraged well-known church musicians to provide lighter music for the theatre and opera, and this was an accepted practice in the great continental cities as well as in London.

 Purcell, Henry (1659 - 1695)
He died in 1695, a year after composing funeral music for Queen Mary.
With considerable gifts as a composer, he wrote extensively for the stage, particularly in a hybrid musico-dramatic form of the time, for the church and for popular entertainment, a master of English word-setting and of contemporary compositional techniques for instruments and voices.
Purcell wrote only one full opera, a short work supposedly designed for a girls' school.

 Henry PURCELL: Music for the London Theatre CD
Most of Purcell's theatre music was written between 1690 and 1695 (the year of his death), and within that relatively brief period he supplied music for more than forty plays.
This body of music, viewed as a whole, shows that Purcell gave to the theatre some of his happiest melodic inspirations, distributed among solemn overtures, cheerful or pathetic airs, and delightful dances of every imaginable kind.
Purcell also became involved with the growing London public concert scene for which he wrote chamber music in the form of harpsichord suites and trio sonatas.

To the oboist and English hornist interested in his or her instrument's performing tradition, the Sonata's technical and music demands indicate that Carlo Yvon and his colleagues were musicians of considerable soph istication and ability.
Along with this orchestral activity we can assume the corresponding development of instrumental chamber music, for in 1758 an Accademia Filarmonica was established, and its members, most of whom were noblemen, were each required to compose a sonata or an overture every year.
Giovanni Battista Sammartini (1701-1775), younger brother of the oboist Giuseppe Sammartini (1695-1750), spent most of his life there and became known as the leader of the Milanese symphonic school;6 the operatic reformer Christoph Willibald von Gluck (1714-1787) studied with Sammartini, and in 1754 J.C. Bach was brought to Milan by his patron, Count Agostino Litta.

An important German composer of Protestant church music, Johann Pachelbel brought to his art an element acquired from acquaintance with Catholic forms of music in Vienna and Italy.
Although chamber music represents only a small part of Pachelbel's achievement as a composer, his Canon and Gigue have in recent years won enormous popularity.
He was employed as an organist at Erfurt, then at court in Stuttgart, as organist at Gotha and finally from 1695 in his native city of Nuremberg, where he died in 1706.

Of Pachelbel's surviving works for Chamber Ensemble, the most important are the Six Suites for Two Violins and Continuo constituting his Musicalische Ergötzung ("Musical Celebration") published at some unspecified date after he had moved to Nuremberg in 1695.
The Toccata in D provides a good opening, and we close with the monumental Ciacona (Chaconne) in f-minor, played on an organ highly suited to the music of Pachelbel.
We offer here a sampling of his chamber music.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Encyclopedia
The general culture which every free-born Greek and Roman had to acquire, comprised the practical and theoretical sciences, grammar, music, geometry, astronomy, and gymnastics, and was termed egkyklios paideia, orbis doctrin (cycle of the sciences), and, beginning with the Middle Ages, artes liberales.
The first to attempt a work founded on the philosophy and interrelation of sciences was Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam, in his incomplete "Instauratio Magna", the second part of which was the "Novum organum" (London, 1620), and his "De dignitate et augmentis scientiarum" (1623).
Besides these general encyclopedias dealing with different arts and sciences, there are also special technical dictionaries devoted to departments of each science, often treating recondite subjects, but in the hands of scholars facilitating acquaintance with the details of these sciences.

 Violin in 16th, 17th and 18th century - seminar by D.Badiarov
The use of such violins in the 17th and even 18th century music should be looked at as one of the rich possibilities which the early music performance has to offer to the modern listeners.
Setup of the instruments was different as different were the way of playing, pitch, strings, music styles etc. not only from country to country, but even within one city at the same given time.
A great majority of the 16th century instrumental repertory, which consisted of dances, instrumental consort music, vocal polyphony performed with or without voices is entirely possible with three-strung viola da braccio.

He probably received early music training at Magnus Song School in Newark; later he was a choirboy at the Chapel Royal under Henry Cooke 1659-63.
In 1695 he was named 'Tuner of the regalls, organs, virginalls' etc., with 'Father' Smith; finally in 1699 he became First Composer in Ordinary to the Chapel Royal, the official Chapel Royal composer, the first to hold such a post.

"Hole in the Wall" was not published as a Playford dance until 1698 because the music wasn't composed until 1695.

It is one of the 36 English country dance tunes discovered to have been composed by Henry Purcell which were then taken by dancing masters to write dances to.
