Focusing on the reception of Palestrina, this bold
interdisciplinary study explains how and why the works of a
sixteenth-century composer came to be viewed as a paradigm for
modern church music. It explores the diverse ways in which later
composers responded to his works and style, and expounds a
provocative model for interpreting compositional historicism. In
addition to presenting insights into the works of Bruckner,
Mendelssohn and Liszt, the book offers fresh perspectives on the
institutional, aesthetic and ideological frameworks sustaining the
cultivation of choral music in this period. This publication
provides an overview and analysis of the relation between the
Palestrina revival and nineteenth-century composition and it
demonstrates that the Palestrina revival was just as significant
for nineteenth-century culture as parallel movements in the other
arts, such as the Gothic revival.
