Excerpt from Die Horazischen Metren: In Deutschen Kompositionen des XVI. Jahrhunderts
Die nachfolgende Abhandlung sammt der Originalpartitur der Odenkompositionen ist ein mit freundlicher Genehmigung der Redaktion veranstalteter Abdruck aus der Vierteljahrsschrift fiir Musikwissenschaft, herausgegeben von Chrysander, Spitta und Adler, 3. Jahrgang 4887 4. Vierteljahr. Den Anlaß zu dieser Sonderausgabe bot der Wunsch, die alten Kompositionen, welche ursprunglich für den Gebrauch auf Universitäten und Gymnasien bestimmt waren, den Gymnasien fur ihre Horazstudien wieder zuzufuhren; für diesen Zweck des praktischen Gesanges habe ich ihnen hier eine Uebertragung in moderne Noten schrift beigegeben. Da der hauptsachlichste Gewinn ihrer Ausführung durch Schülerchore aber darin bestehen soll, daß den Schulern die alten Metren verstandlich und lebendig werden, so war es naturlich geboten, die Kompositionen nach unserer heutigen Einsicht in die Beschaffenheit der antiken Metren zu rhythmisiren. Die Art, wie dies zu geschehen hat, ist bereits am Schlusse der Abhandlung er läutert und begrundet.
