What is a thematic catalog?

A tool used to differentiate between works with the similar

names.

“A musical work, printed or manuscript, may be identified by

composer, title, opus number, key, instrumentation, movement

headings, first line of text, date, publisher, dedicatee, plate

number, etc. No one of these, indeed no combination of these,

can provide as certain an identification as an incipit.” (Brook, 1997,

p. ix)

What does a thematic catalog look like?

Item number : 516

Name of work : Sonata

[harpsichord, clarinet,

bassoon]

Manuscript number : Ms.: B

Bc, 6359

Incipit

What does a thematic catalog look like?

Item number: 612

Title: Piccola

composizione etc.

Manuscript info:

1) 1. 1a. C. a. 1

2) 1. 2a. C. a/1

3) 1. 2a. C. c/1

• Cognates: Sonaten = Sonatas, Instrumentalmusik =

Instrumental music

• Examine the thematic catalog’s structure, using the

information gathered from the work, to identify where the

incipit may be.

• Check against the New Grove, MGG, or both.

How to deal with the differences

New Grove

Dictionary of Music and Musicians

Bach, C. P. E. Six Pieces for Clarinet, Bassoon, and Piano

Marcello, Alessandro. Marcello Oboe Konzert

MGG

Die Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart

Bach, C. P. E. Six Pieces for Clarinet, Bassoon, and Piano

Marcello, Alessandro. Marcello Oboe Konzert

Straight-forward identification

Quantz

6 Sonatas for Flute and Basso

Continuo

Not so straight-forward

Purcell

Ayre

To the left: Incipit from Henry Purcell 1659-1695:

An analytical catalogue of his music.

Down-right confusing (but still possible)

The Marcello Brothers

Benedetto: Concerto in Do Minore

[Alessandro written in]

Benedetto: Oboe Konzert transcribed by Bach

Z799 Concerto for Oboe

and strings in C minor: In

Benedetto’s section

D935 Concerto for Oboe

and strings in D minor: In

Alessandro’s section

Down-right confusing (but still possible)

Gaetano Donizetti

Concertino für Klarinette und kammerorchester -

B-dur

“It is based on sketches in Donizettis’ own hand for the first

movement…copies stemming from the hand of Guido

Zavadini (MSS. No’s. I 2a C a 1 – score – and I 2a C c 1 –

piano reduction – contained in the Musea Donizettiano,

Bergamo) for the second movement.” (p. 2)
