About this exposition

Name: Floris van Daalen. Main subject: Classical trombone. Title: Big Slides in Augsburg. Research question: How was the bass sackbut used in Hans Leo Hassler's music while he was in Augsburg? A lot can be found about the use and application of the tenor sackbut, with a wide range of sources on this subject. However, this is lacking for the bass sackbut. This was a surprise to me as the bass sackbut is regularly used in performances today. In this research, I attempt to fill in this gap a little by diving into a specific area in Germany and focusing on a single composer. I will do this by, in the first part, diving into the context of the development of the sackbut and the consequent development of the bass sackbut, gaining knowledge of the instrument itself. I follow this up by evaluating the city of Augsburg, with the focus being the history of the city around 1600 and the years leading up to that. This all leads into the investigation of prominent composer Hans Leo Hassler and his time as an artist in the city of Augsburg. Following this more theoretical aspect, I examine music written by Hassler to explain the use of the bass sackbut in his music, providing more practical examples of where and how the bass would fit in and where we could use the bass sackbut today. by examining parts from Hassler’s published works and connecting them to the information set out before about the bass sackbut, I will try with this research to give a more conclusive answer to the practical use of the bass sackbut for this music.
