XVI century: The birth of a choral concert
The choral concert is a large genre in form and rich in its expressive capabilities, originated in Italy at the end of the 16th century in the bosom of worship, but expressed the desire of musicians to go beyond the limits of cult art. Therefore, those that reflected the most direct human experiences were chosen from traditional texts for concerts.
This genre developed as paralyturgic, and therefore throughout its history it was discovered by the stylistic origins of secular music and its most striking techniques that could be available to the choral [1].
In Germany, choral concerts are called [2].
1240: As part of the Holy Roman Empire
The empire throughout its history (962-1806) remained a decentralized entity with a complex feudal hierarchical structure, uniting several hundred territorial-state entities. At the head of the empire was the emperor. The imperial title was not hereditary, but was awarded following the election of the electors by the college. The power of the emperor was never absolute and was limited to the highest aristocracy of Germany, and from the end of the 15th century - the Reichstag, representing the interests of the main classes of the empire.
1430: Church unsuccessfully tries to ban chopins
A pair of 15th-16th century Venetian wooden shoes called chopins (as well as zoccoli or pianelle), approx. 40 cm high.
The purpose of the chopins, in addition to increasing the beauty and irresistibility of their owner, was quite practical: the high sole protected from dirt on the streets and was something like an indicator of the "social level." After all, shoes, like other parts of medieval clothing, directly informed everyone around them about the status of their mistress. Another thing is that it is extremely difficult to walk on such "stilts" in bulky dresses without the help of handmaids.
Tommaso Garzoni (1549-1589), an Italian Renaissance writer wrote of them: "These shoes made women so tall that in St. Mark's Square the short-haired looked like giants, and the tall ones looked like spires of houses"
The Catholic Church tried to resist the fashion for chopins (up to an attempt to directly ban their wearing in 1430 in Venice), calling these shoes "restless and depraved," but this did not prevent its distribution throughout Europe until the middle of the 17th century.
