A dance. It is placed at the beginning or second of a suite, and has a moderate tempo in 4/4 time (often beginning with an upbeat). The origin of this dance, which means "German-like", is unknown, but in theoretical books from the late 15th century it was treated as a kind of bass dance, and it became popular in the 16th century. The early allemande was a simple 2/4 time dance consisting of 3 parts, with simple steps. Like the pavane, it often has a rapid 3/4 time dance at the end. The instrumental ensemble pieces that appeared in Germany in the early 17th century (Schein, Scheidt, etc.) inherited this tradition. The allemande as a dance completely disappeared in the 17th century, and instead it became an indispensable part of suites as a stylized dance. This new allemande was strongly influenced by the lute style of 17th century France, and was centered on contrapuntal techniques, in which short melodic phrases were passed between voices.

舞曲。組曲の最初あるいは2番目に置かれ、4分の4拍子(上拍(アウフタクト)から始まることが多い)の中庸の速度をもつ。この「ドイツ風の」の意をもつ舞曲の起源は不明だが、15世紀末の理論書ではバス・ダンスの一種として扱われており、本格的に流行するのは16世紀からである。初期のアルマンドは、3部分からなる素朴な2拍子系の踊りで、ステップも単純であった。パバーヌなどと同じく、後部に急速な3拍子の舞曲が続くことも多い。17世紀初頭のドイツに現れた器楽アンサンブル用の作品(シャイン、シャイトなど)はこの伝統を受け継いだものである。舞踊としてのアルマンドは17世紀に入るとまったく姿を消し、かわって様式化された舞曲として、組曲に欠かせない存在となる。この新しいアルマンドは、17世紀フランスのリュート様式から強い影響を受けており、短い旋律楽句が声部間で受け渡されるという対位法的手法が中心になっている。 [関根敏子] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
