Josquin used the Pange lingua melody in his Mass‚ Missa Pange lingua. In this essay‚ I would analyse the way he had used the melody in the Agnus Dei section of his Mass and explore how he had used other techniques such as canon‚ imitation‚ sequence‚ repetition and duetting. Josquin used an example of canon to start the Agnus Dei of his mass. A canon is a strict imitation between two or more parts which the intervals between notes are exactly the same. At the beginning of the Angus Dei‚ Josquin

comes across as tonally dull and flat which is a weakness for the piece. Many individuals might pass judgment without a second listening. There is a soothing beautiful simple flow to the piece‚ flowing evenly and rhythmically. As a lyrical chant‚ the flow of the piece would allow for instruments to replace voices if desired. This would be an aesthetic strength giving the piece versatility. If time is taken to listen to the piece repeatedly‚ it becomes clearer that the tone is not dull

Sophonie Ilera Research & Literature 10/21/13 “The Secretary’s Chant‚” by Margie Piercy explains the feeling of dehumanization for women in the workforce. I liked how the poem sounds like a machine is talking because it further expresses a secretary’s feelings of being an object rather than a person. The poem was written in 1936 when many women had secretary or desk jobs‚ so I am sure many women could relate to it. Piercy used humor well to describe a somewhat depressing time for women. While

In the history of sound poetry‚ there is a famous female poet Anne Waldman. Her perspective of the world influences her poems. She combines Buddhism and Sabina’s mushroom theory (explained later) into her poem “Fast Speaking Woman” to make it a chant. Unlike the sound poem “Ursonate” with meaningless words and pronunciations to express emotions‚ “Fast Speaking Woman” by Anne Waldman lightens the poem by filling a variety of English words in a main structure: “ I am a/the______woman” and other similar

In the poem “The Secretary Chant” by Margie Piercy‚ a woman working as a secretary is depicted as undervalued and unappreciated by her employer. With this poem being written in 1936‚ the idea of women in the workplace was fairly new. Women were not given equal treatment as employees and were in the beginning stages of their fight for equality. The year the poem was written most certainly plays an integral role in the poem’s tone‚ structure‚ diction‚ and theme. Throughout the poem‚ it is obvious that
