An Entity of Type: LanguageUnit106284225, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A glee is a type of English part song composed during the Late Baroque, Classical, and early Romantic periods, that is to say, the Georgian era. The respectable and artistic character of glees contrasts with the bawdiness of the many catches which continued to be composed and sung well into the early years of the 19th century.

  • A glee is a type of English part song composed during the Late Baroque, Classical, and early Romantic periods, that is to say, the Georgian era. The respectable and artistic character of glees contrasts with the bawdiness of the many catches which continued to be composed and sung well into the early years of the 19th century. The use of the countertenor voice on the upper part(s) in glees composed for men's voices, and on the Alto part(s) in those for mixed voices, is a particular characteristic of the form (the most famous exponent, known for his elegant ornamentation, was William Knyvett) and serves to distinguish glees from other male voice partsongs, which usually lack countrapuntal writing and have the top part taken by a tenor. This gives them a highest note around a major third below that of men's voice glees. Some care is required in interpreting the intended voicing of glees in contemporary editions, due to the gradual replacement, taking place at this time, of the C clef with the treble clef but often without the required octave transposition being specified.

  • Un glee est un chant populaire ou traditionnel typiquement et exclusivement anglais, harmonisé pour plusieurs voix égales ou mixtes, trois ou quatre habituellement, chanté le plus souvent a cappella par des voix solistes. Les glees étaient à l'origine chantés exclusivement par des voix d'hommes, les gleemen, sortes de musiciens ambulants, la partie aiguë, celle qui a en général la mélodie, étant alors tenue par un enfant (chantant soprano) ou un contreténor (chantant l'alto), à l'instar des chœurs d'église professionnels.

  • Гли (англ. glee, от др.-англ. gligg — музыка) — жанр популярной вокальной музыки, распространённый в Англии во второй половине XVIII и первой половине XIX веков. (ru)
  • Glee är en engelsk kompositionsart för minst tre solostämmor, vanligen manliga, och närmast motsvarande den germanska manskvartetten. Liksom denna är glee homofon, medan den äldre madrigalen var kontrapunktiskt skriven. Glees blomstringstid sammanfaller ungefär med livstiden för artens mest berömde kompositör (1740–1816). Genren var så omtyckt, att till sångernas utförande bildades särskilda klubbar, glee clubs, i London, varav den förnämsta existerade 1783–1857. (sv)
  • Glee é uma forma de música coral tipicamente britânica para vozes masculinas sem acompanhamento, muito popular no século XIX. (pt)
