Question
John Playford is credited with coining the name for this type of piece, which Thomas Brewer may have invented with “Turn, Amaryllis, to thy Swain.” For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this type of part song. One of these songs called “Glorious Apollo” was the theme of an ensemble named after these songs, which met at London’s Newcastle Coffee House.
ANSWER: glees [accept glee clubs]
[10e] Many glees are characterized by their use of this voice part. This nonstandard male voice type overlaps with a mezzo soprano and sings almost exclusively in falsetto.
ANSWER: countertenor [or contratenor; reject “tenor”]
[10m] The glee’s bawdier counterpart was a type of these songs called a catch. An early one of these songs whose manuscript was discovered in Reading (“RED-ing”) Abbey tells a cuckoo to sing loudly to herald the arrival of the title season.
ANSWER: round [or perpetual canon or infinite canon; prompt on canon; prompt on rota by asking “a rota is a form of what broader type of song?”] (The unnamed round is “Sumer is icumen in.”)
