Nocturns


(Lat. nocturni, nocturnae orationes).

The Night Hours of the Divine Office. Before the 1971 simplification of the Roman Breviary, the night Office of Matins (or Vigils) was composed of three nocturns for double or semi-double feasts, and one nocturn for simple feasts or ferias. In an Office of three nocturns, each nocturn has three psalms with antiphons and three lessons with responsories. An Office of one nocturn normally has nine psalms and three lessons. At Easter and Pentecost the traditional night Office consists of a single nocturn with three psalms and three lessons. The monastic Office differs from the Roman Office in the arrangement and composition of the nocturns. Double feasts have an Office of three nocturns, but the first two of these have six psalms and four lessons each; the third has three Old Testament canticles and four lessons. The monastic ferial (or weekday) Office is composed of two nocturns, each of six psalms; after the psalms of the first nocturn three lessons are recited in winter and one in summer. (See also Liturgy of the Hours.)



MARY BERRY

Noda, Teruyuki


(b Mie, 15 June 1940). Japanese composer. He studied composition to postgraduate level with Ikenouchi and Yashiro at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music. Distinguishing himself while a student, Noda won first prize in the Japan Music Competition in 1963 with the Sinfonia, was commissioned by the Japan Philharmonic SO for the Symphony no.1 and won a prize with his Choral Symphony. These works are characterized by the organized relationship of motifs and his mastery of Western orchestration. In the choral work Shi-sha no sho (1971) he employs techniques which include voiceless sounds and clusters built up from subdivided parts. Noda led Shin-shin kai, a group of composition disciples of Ikenouchi, between 1974 and 1984. He won the Italian Broadcasting Corporation award with La piano tombe dans la mer (1974). In the Otaka Prize-winning Piano Concerto (1977), the String Quartet (1986) and Rhapsodie adriatique (1988) Noda exquisitely balances a classical consistency with a brilliant and expressive performing style. His sense of dramatic pacing is displayed in the play Takayama Ukon (1997). Further information is given in K. Hori, ed.: Nihon no sakkyoku nijusseiki (‘Japanese compositions in the 20th century’, Tokyo, 1999), 196–8.

YOKO NARAZAKI

Nodari, Giovanni Paolo


(b ?Brescia; d after 1620). Italian composer. He was a Benedictine monk of the Congregazione Fiesolana and in 1620 was working at Bressanone, on one of the transalpine routes from northern Italy to southern Germany. His output consisted mainly of church music in the concertato style, most of it contained in a volume each of vesper psalms, motets, and Magnificat settings based on the eight Gregorian tones. The latter publication (1620), which offers plenty of textural and rhythmic variety, shows that he was well versed in the reasonably modern idiom of provincial northern Italy. He could write pleasant melodies, but his harmonic sense was wayward, and the music consequently lacks a feeling of direction.
