Musica Poetica
The term musica poetica was used to describe the composition in music theory of the 16th and 17th centuries .
Based on Aristotle, a distinction was made between Musica theoretica , Musica practica and Musica poetica . The word poetica did not mean the art of poetry , but poiesis , the production. The term first appears in the Rudimenta Musicae Planae ( Wittenberg , 1533) by Nikolaus Listenius , then as a work title in Heinrich Faber (1548), Joachim Burmeister (1606), Johann Andreas Herbst (1643) and others. a.
The Musica Poetica is in turn divided into Sortisatio and Compositio . While there are various examples of sortisatio (Villanellen, Cantica Rustica, Bawrenlieder), Compositio is only listed as a counterpoint .
