fragment of "Musical Grammar" by M. Dyletsky.A native of Kyiv, Mykola Dyletsky is called the creator of the Western school of partes music, which gave the world a number of outstanding composers.
He wrote the theoretical work “Musical Grammar” — a monument of the Ukrainian Baroque — which was published exactly 350 years ago in Vilna (now Vilnius). In it, Dyletsky explained in detail the technical features of partes singing and composition.
And what is important! In this work, he was the first in the world to describe the circle of fifths — as a graphic diagram by which a musician can trace the harmonic connections between all major and minor keys of 12 notes. For composers, this work made it easier to write music.
This is really worth paying attention to… The work “The Resurrection Canon” by Mykola Dyletsky. Please listen.
