[The article referred to in the last previous entry, ‘The History of Western Music’,* is photocopied in the ms at pp214-227 (pp216-217 being accidentally left blank, so all subsequent page numbers were later increased by 2, with the result that many ms footnote references have had to be corrected for the ts). Marginal cycle references are written-in throughout, most appearing to have been added later; most of these are not reproduced in the ts, except where they accompany extracts reproduced here. In addition to the extracts quoted in five of the last previous six journal entries above, [Redbook8:211][19910205:1030d]{Dionysus and Apollo}[5th February 1991]ff, other highlighted or annotated extracts include those set out in the following entries under this ms heading.]

[Annotated extract at the end of ‘THE MIDDLE AGES’ ‘The Notre-Dame school’ ‘The beginning of the motet’]

‘Then, when words were provided for the added part or parts, a clausula became a motet.... Finally, each added part was given its own text, resulting in the classic Paris motet: **a three-part composition consisting of a portion of plainchant (tenor) overlaid with two faster moving parts, each with its own secular text in French.’***
