Charles V : defender of the faith and universal monarch -- The genesis of the chapel -- The reconstruction of the Capilla Flamenca -- The chapel ordinances : ritual and repertory at the court -- Music and ceremony at the court of Charles V -- Charles V as crusader and Christian knight -- The presentation of the emperor -- Appendix A: Chapel rosters -- Appendix B: Chapel statutes and ordinances -- Appendix C: Selected chapel personnel.
Sammanfattning: The presentation of Charles V as universal monarch, defender of the faith, magnanimous peacemaker, and reborn Roman Emperor became the mission of artists, poets, and chroniclers, who shaped contemporary perceptions of him and engaged in his political promotion. Music was equally essential to the making of his image, as this book shows. It reconstructs musical life at his court, by examining the compositions which emanated from it, the ordinances prescribing its rituals and ceremonies, and his prestigious chapel, which reflected his power and influence.
