	Hucbald - LoveToKnow 1911
		HUCBALD (HUGBALDUS, HUBALDUS), Benedictine monk, and writer on music, was born at the monastery of Saint Amand near Tournai, in or about 840, if we may believe the statement of his biographers to the effect that he died in 930, aged 90.
		Hucbald made rapid progress in the acquirement of various sciences and arts, including that of music, and at an early age composed a hymn in honour of St Andrew, which met with such success as to excite the jealousy of his uncle.
		In 860, however, he was at St Germain d'Auxerre, bent upon completing his studies, and in 872 he was back again at St Amand as the successor in the headmastership of the convent school of his uncle, to whom he had been reconciled in the meantime.

	Hucbald of St-Amand
		Hucbald made successful efforts to improve and supplement the neumatic notation in use in his time, which indicated the rhythm of the melody, but left the singer dependent on tradition for its intervals.
		Hucbald later used lines and the first letters of the Latin alphabet as a means of fixing the intervals of the scale, and in this way became an important forerunner of Guido of Arezzo.
		Hucbald's principal achievement, however, consists in having given a theoretic basis to the custom of adding another melody to the chant of the Church, which custom he called organum, or diaphonia (see COUNTERPOINT; HARMONY), thereby laying the foundation for polyphony which developed from it.

	Systems Of Hucbald And Guido D' Arezzo - The Beginning Of Counterpoint
		Hucbald (840-930) was a monk of the monastery of St. Armand in Flanders.
		Hucbald, as I have already explained, changed the Greek tone system somewhat by arranging it in four regular disjunct tetrachords, namely.
		Thus the harsh consecutive passages in fifths and fourths of the organum of Hucbald disappeared in favour of the softer progressions of thirds and sixths.

	Didactic of Music from the 5th Century to the 14th - Popular History Of Music
		The manual of Hucbald is not to be regarded as a complete treatise upon music.
		Fétis has well said that Hucbald must be considered as one of those superior spirits who impress upon their epoch a movement in an art or science.
		Hucbald, as we have already seen, employed the spaces between the lines for designating pitch.

	Hexachords - Basic System
		Hucbald's treatise, reflecting the Carolingian revival of classical studies, shows a lively interest in music not only as an academic or philosophical disciple, but as an art practiced by instrumentalists as well as singers.
		While Hucbald's example notated a melody in terms of the six strings of an instrument arranged T-T-S-T-T, it was the innovation of Guido to associate this series of six notes with a set of easily remembered syllables.
		In the case of a lyre, as Hucbald himself notes, more strings can be and often are added to accommodate the ranges of the various modes.

	Organum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first document to describe organum specifically, and give rules for its performance, was the Musica enchiriadis (c.
		895), a treatise traditionally (and probably incorrectly) attributed to Hucbald of St. Amand.
		Martial School of florid organum, which may have been centered around the monastery of St. Martial in Limoges, and the Notre Dame school of organum of Paris (see: rhythmic mode), which included composers such as Léonin and Pérotin, and out of which grew most of the later forms such as the motet.

	Early Medieval Period (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The principles underlying early polyphonic music, especially organum, were articulated by Hucbald, a Benedictine Monk, who was highly regarded as a scholar and teacher.
		Hucbald is given credit for devising the Ecclesiastic Modes using ancient Greek modes as a point of departure in addition to composing Gregorian Chant.
		Hucbald's treatise is in the form of a textbook and, while not a compositional methodology per se, certainly discusses ideas of a more practical nature than earlier Greek treatises.

		Hucbald's masterwork, Ecloga de Calvis, "In Praise of Bald Men," argues that bald men were innately superior kings, doctors, clergymen, and warriors.
		Where some might see a barren patch surrounded by wispy tufts of hair, Hucbald imagined the bald pate, with its ring of hair, as a shiny, natural crown.

	Crwth
		Hucbald of St Amand (840-930 A.D.) seems to suggest CDEFGA as a lyre tuning in his De harmonica institutione and Bragod have begun setting stanzas from 'Y Gododdin' and other material from The Book of Aneirin using Hucbald's tuning.
		A player may bear against the frame of the crwth with the outer edge of the left hand while the left thumb is plucking the lateral strings, so gaining extra stability.
		CDEFGA, Hucbald's lyre tuning, also the 'natural hexachord' or 'natural deduction' of Guido d'Arezzo (995-1050), is the series of notes produced by the crwth in first position.

		He succeeded Milo as head of the monastery school, apparently before his uncle's death (872), but the fame of his learning brought him a call to St. Bertin, and, about 893, to Reims, where, at the request of Archbishop Fulco, he and his fellow pupil Remi giua revived the school in that city.
		On the death of Fulco, however, Hucbald returned to St. Amand, where he spent the remainder of his life.
		He was the author of various legends of the saints, among which the lives of Rictrnd and Lebuin are of his torical value.

	HurdAudio: Music History and Its Discontents
		A provocative trail of blog posts has pooled into this entry from Robert Gable's aworks.
		Hucbald ponders music evolution and argues the merits of understanding the tradition that has elapsed before one's point in the time continuum and approaching composition as a summation of all that has preceded it.
		An impossibly tall order, but I share Hucbald's impatience with those who choose not to explore the rich sounds from time elapsed.

		Hucbald was born about A.D. 840 and became monk of Elnone on the Scarpe.
		He went to Auxerre, where he followed the lectures of Heiric, a disciple of John Scotus Eriugena.

	The LLama Butchers: Carnival of Music #8
		The first is by Hucbald of A Monk's Musical Musings, announcing the intent to analyze Beethoven's 9th Symphony in its entirety, based on the piano transcriptions by Franz Liszt.
		I must say that Hucbald has a considerably more favorable opinion of Liszt than I do, but this looks like a very interesting project.
		And yes, I'm a Liszt fan: The Paganinni Etudes are phenominal, but most people are unaware of his late solo organ works, which are sublimely introspective and unfathomably deep.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Counterpoint
		The term counterpoint originated in the fourteenth century, though the art designated by it had been practiced for several centuries previous.
		The desire for harmony, that is, the simultaneous sounding with the cantus firmus, tenor, or theme, of one or more voices on different intervals, first found expression in the so-called diaphony or "Organum" of Hucbald (840-930 or 932).
		In the twelfth century, in France, the custom arose, and became general among singers of improvising one or more independent melodies above the liturgical melody, or cantus firmus.

		The composers who I consider to be the greatest - Perotinus, Palestrina, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, and Taneiev - were walking, talking, and composing musical summations of everything that came before them.
