What is Hocket?
and Hocket is a term used in music to describe rhythmic linear technology using two votes or players who alternate with each other. Both voices or players do not sing or play at the same time, but rather directly after the second, and leaves a little or no break between them. It can also be used with more than two votes or players. It seems that voices interrupt each other, but rather rose immediately after the end of the second and created short explosions of rhythmic music back and forth. Hocket technique is sometimes used with one voice, where one singer sings alone, but with short phrases or notes sung by short remnants, unlike traditional melodic phrases.
Hocketing first appeared in the 13th century and is closely associated with the music of the Notre Dame cathedral. The most common combination in Hocket is the formula of long notes combined with short notes. The Hocket method would be dispersed between the conventional rhythm of notes, creating long music. Larger compositions were usually composed of six different in advanceset rhythmic patterns. Hocketing was generally found in motets, wires and in the organ.
During the middle of the thirteenth century, motets and other short pieces were referred to as hockets. These songs have throughout the work. At the moment, another technique was created and was called the "Modal Trunesmution". This technique was associated with one rhythm, also called a regime that has become effortlessly released into another regime.
Hocketing became very common at the beginning of the 14th century. Hockets were fast and easy to fold, so it became a popular technique for music authors. Conservative churches avoided music that used Hocket for its use in common music.
Some French music introduced the Hocket method, especially The Chaces, Canons and Chansons. Hocketing examples can also be found in Caccias and Madrigals. Although sometimes extensively used in songs, HockETING was sometimes used in a minor role in the music composition to imitate stuttering, shouts or animals from animals. By the end of the 14th century, hocketing dropped out of kindness, replaced by smoother melodic music.
Hocketing can be found in later centuries, in some classical music. Some types of African music use Hocket with drums, xylophones and other musical instruments. Several other cultures have used the technique and is located in some songs from the Swiss Alps and some dance music from New Guinea.
