The Magnificat: Facets and Research Paths
“The Magnificat is such a beautiful prayer that the Church uses it every day at Evening Prayer, in the Liturgy of the
Hours. It perfectly summarizes Mary's faith and trust in God and is also the longest direct quote from any woman in
the New Testament. In the Women's Bible Commentary, author Jane Schaberg writes: "The Magnificat is the great
New Testament song of liberation—personal and social, moral and economic—a revolutionary document of intense
conflict and victory." (McCloskey, 2004. http://www.americancatholic.org/Messenger/May2004/Wiseman.asp)
The sacred vocal setting of Luke 1, 46-55 has been a recurring compositional subject
throughout the liturgical music history of the Roman Catholic religion. Apart from the Ordinary
of the Mass, the Magnificat was the liturgical setting most often rendered polyphonically from
the mid-15th century to the beginning of the 17th. From the earliest of mass settings, because the
Magnificat holds such liturgical significance for the church, the text is used daily at Evening
Prayer in the Liturgy of the Hours and is part of the Gospel for the Feast of the Visitation, May
31. Catholic and early Protestant music liturgists sought new settings often to match modes of
the other mass parts on hand. It is a subject complete with all facets of musicological study and
offers us an interesting example today of the resources that can point us to some of the oldest or
newest works, settings, modalities, voicings & textures, performers or performance practices,
composers and geographies, manuscripts, scores and recordings.
1. Music Reference and Research Materials: An Annotated Bibliography. Edited by
Vincent H. Duckles, Ida Reed and Michael A. Keller. 5th ed. New York: Schirmer
Books, 1997.
The Sacred Music section contains recommendations for additional references located in various
handbooks on hymnology since bibliographies of writings on Sacred Music are surprisingly few.
One entry specific indexed as Magnificat (separate part in work) is a single source bibliography
on the subject, in German. Study of this resource can show you what is abundant and what is not
to further inform you on narrowing or broadening subject direction. Great place to begin research
of a topic for undergraduate, graduate or DMA students as well as life-long learners and faculty.
Balanced finding aid to mix of handbooks, sources, liturgical guides, theses and dissertations in
Sacred Music, texts, international bibliographies, and geographic or religion subject areas. Also
points to Dictionaries of musical themes by index reference to the subject of Oratorios. Useful to
familiarize the researcher with the facets of the subject of study.

www.oxfordmusiconline.com/subscriber/article/grove/music/40076 (accessed
December 15, 2009).
Subject entry with summary of the form of the Magnificat, its style periods, liturgical and
compositional practices. Edited by Magnificat subject experts (e.g. Kirsch, Steiner) who appear
in Duckles and later in this bibliography. Article provides a basis from which to examine
specific facets after establishing an understanding of the bigger picture. Mentions specific
works, and three key factors of the development of form and style which lent the Magnificat
setting in a mass part a distinct character apart from other forms or mass parts in the same mass.
Discusses compositional settings of selected composers throughout the history of the canticle,
highlighting for each style period the greater works and their composers. Has separate
bibliography sections for Monophonic references and Polyphonic references with finding aid to
additional bib references under Canticle and Divine Office.

1966.
This is the only referenced bibliography by Vincent Duckles in his single subject entry for
Magnificat. The author of this work, which is in German, is an author of the polyphonic section
of the Grove subject entry. Examines polyphonic Latin, German and instrumental Magnificat
works. Includes a chronological list of composers, countries and languages. Organized by
general sources, specific sources and examines vocal texts and forms, verses and tablatures. Part
two is a thematic catalog of Magnificat sources including incipits. Sources are listed
alphabetically and include manuscripts and prints. Appendix includes German abbreviations.
4. Walker, Diane Parr and Paul Walker. German Sacred Polyphonic Vocal Music between
Schütz and Bach; Sources and Critical Editions. Michigan: Harmonie Park Press, 1992.
Catalogs still existing German sacred vocal music for three or more voices from the second half
of the seventeenth century, inclusive of end of the Thirty Years War in 1648 to the beginning of
the careers of Bach and Handel in about 1700. For this time frame the work covers all German
speaking lands and also includes several Italian composers who spent their careers primarily or
entirely in German cities. This bibliography is intended for scholars who wish to study the music
and for performers of the works. Anonymous works have only been included when they are
clearly members of the chronological and geographical frameworks. Sources in this collection
fall into three types: manuscript; published collections of works by individual composers; and
published commemorative pamphlets containing event specific historic information. Individual
German manuscripts come from four sources: the collection of the Erfurt Michaeliskirche and
the collection of the Konigliche Landesshule in Grimma. Parts from these two major collections
still display annotations for performance and dates. The other two sources of manuscripts used in
this resource are the Bokemeyer collection (Berlin) and the Duben collection (Uppsala). The

cited, with next a listing of older literature cited (which is quite extensive).
5. Martini, Johannes, Murray Steib, and Johannes Brebis. Sacred Music. Part 1 Hymns,
Magnificats, Motets and Passions. Middleton, Wis: A-R Editions, 2009.
Each edition in Recent Researches is devoted to works by a single composer or to a single genre,
in this example that genre of interest is the sacred form Magnificat (Mary's Canticle, Mary's
Song). This reference contains nine Magnificats, six composed by Johannes Martini (d. 1497)
and one composed by Johnannes Brebis (d.1479), and two anonymous works which are
considered to be either attributable to Brebis or Martini. There is further description of the
Magnificats compiled in the introduction section on the subject. Evaluation of the Sources is
included in this Introduction section, and this delves deeply into the provenance of the sources,
citing the earliest of the sources of the Magnificats to be dated ca 1472-77 (Trent C91), the latest
source (DresSL1/D/505) was copied ca.1510-1530. The reference includes a section on editorial
methods titled Critical Commentary which describes methods of transcription, how note values
have been reduced by half, modern clefs have been utilized and bar lines have been added to
denote measures of one breve duration. Incipits are provided which include the name of the voice
part, its clef, key, initial mensuration sign, and the first note or ligature as found in the primary
source. Faulx bourdon is not written out in the original sources, but in this edition has been
marked. In the Magnificats, where the chant melody repeats with differing syllables, editorial
parentheses have been added. Original clef is used in the chant sections. All editorial accidentals
are indicated above the staff. Translations are provided as a subset of the Critical Commentary
section, primary sources for these are noted at the beginning of the textual translation from native
(Latin) to English. An example for the Magnificat 1. toni "primary source. ModE M.1.11, fol.
42v. – text source Luke 1:46-55". This critical commentary section provides the scholar or
researcher a way to look at primary sources with explanation for the abbreviations in this section.
Additionally the resource lists a section in the Contents titled "Notes on Performance (xvii) and
includes a section of Plates (xl).

This work, published initially as a dissertation, is found in the Theology subject area and is
entirely in German. It provides a section devoted to the Magnificat and opens this section with
debate about how liturgically the veneration of Mary came to be. The work here is interesting
from the sociological facets of the religious cultural developments and arguments about what has
evolved. Contains numerous footnotes of sources of religious cites and musical cites. Takes the
topic from the religious, liturgical perspective first, musical aspects are secondary.

German bibliographic sources and writings and manuscript drafts, with an English introduction.
The Magnificat in this resource is dated with certainty to the summer of 1852, with notes about
the circumstances of the composition itself, performances, discussion about how the parts
provide valuable insight to the composer concerns in his early years as a performer of his own
music. This reference has bibliographic source entries that include letters from the composer,
drafts and copies of the composers works, with other notes about how sources were being
preserved and planned for publication through the auspices of the Music Collection of the
Austrian National Library. Has a companion score published for review in a separate record.

C160 Choral music. Part 1 of this source addresses classical music with three sections: 1)general
guides buyers guides, and subjects / genres; 2) classical historical recordings with a label
discography; and 3) by classical composer or performer. Discographies serve a function similar
to that of the song indexes for score anthologies, and provide access to information about
individual tracks that would not necessarily be found in the main Title record. This source is not
annotated and contains about 1,900 entries. At the end of the book is a summary of national
discographies, catalogs and major review sources organized by country. Be sure to check on
online service such as NAXOS in addition to this work, as the publication is dated. Any
researcher of the subject should listen as well as learn, but discographies offer insights of
historical and musicological nature.

Reviews the premiere production of the church music "Magnificat" for choir, soprano soloist
and wind quintet, composed by Daniel Pinkham and performed by the Musica Sacra chamber
ensemble at the First Congregational Church in Boston, Massachusetts on March 20, 2004.
Discusses the occasion for the performance, the composer's 80th birthday. Describes the
Boston ensemble Musica Sacra's performance, the genesis of the Magnificat's text, reviews
metric and harmonic intricacies. Interesting to read for consideration of modern American
composers, premiers, and the subject form enduring to our current time and country.
Selection of the Magnificat as a subject for further scholarly research is a broad, deep and rich
tapestry of potential facets to explore further. The monophonic and polyphonic forms of the
early Magnificats contrast hugely with more contemporary settings such as John Rutter or
Daniel Pinkham. Countries all around the globe have composers who have rendered this
treasured canticle setting using their unique musical attributes but remaining steadfast to the
text historically. Treatment of form, modalities, voicings, instrumentation, performance
practices, performers and even the study of the composers themselves all offer potential
direction for further review.
