carillon tablatures - Opis:
- In 1561 an automatic carillon was installed at the Main Town Hall in Gdańsk. The mechanism was programmed by so-called town hall bell setters, who were employed by the City Council. We know the names of over twenty people who held this post. The fi rst was Franciscus de Rivulo — a composer most probably originally from the Netherlands. Out of all the bell setters that followed, he turned out to be the most signifi cant musician and outstanding composer. Later, the mechanism was programmed by other musicians, chiefl y organists, as well as members of the city orchestra and musicians’ guild. As many as ten of tchem were professional organists: Michael Colrep, Jacob Tetius, Franz Tetius, Andreas Neunaber, Jacob Neunaber, Christian Bühn, Theodor Friedrich Gülich, Rudolph Liebegott Liebendey, Julius Krieschen and Paul Krieschen. Members of the city chapel included Philipp Schönberg, Bartel Biehn and Johann Georg Borowski, while the musicians’ guild was represented by Hans Neunaber and Peter Bewersdorff. In the fi nal decades of the 17th century, the post was for the fi rst time held by a clockmaker, Johann Eichstedt. In the 19th century, the post of bell setter was held by two other members of this profession — Paul Friedrich Knaack and Carl Anton Kaschlinsky. On account of their professional training, these clockmakers were very familiar with the mechanism of the ‘singing device’ and they had no problems with setting music on the carillon drum. The article focuses on those setters whose activities had in some way infl uenced the musical culture of Gdańsk. It also points to the work of as yet not so well-know setters. Nevertheless, research is underway and in near future it promises to shed light on many of these currently unclear matters.
