Continuo

basso

Generalbass

The general bass or basso continuo forms the harmonious framework in baroque music. Because of the great importance of the Generalbass during this time, Hugo Riemann also called this age epoch of the Age of the Age of Civilization. The Generalbass consists of the deepest instrumental voice in connection with the chords matching the melody and the musical sequence. These are not written out, but are indicated by numbers and other symbols written above or below the notes of the General Bass. The exact realization of the chords is thus left to the player and is often improvised. This merely "general" form, in which the course of the bass is indicated, then led to the designation "Generalbass". Modern sheet music editions often contain a possible realization of the chords in notes. Very early general bass voices with simple or style-bound pieces often have no figuration, the player can then open the chords from the musical context. 3rd movement from Georg Friedrich Händel's Sonata op. Der Generalbass oder Basso continuo bildet das harmonische Gerüst in der Barockmusik. Wegen der großen Bedeutung des Generalbasses in dieser Zeit wird diese Epoche nach Hugo Riemann auch Generalbasszeitalter genannt. Der Generalbass besteht aus der tiefsten Instrumentalstimme in Verbindung mit zur Melodie und zum musikalischen Ablauf passenden Akkorden. Diese werden nicht ausgeschrieben, sondern durch Ziffern und andere Symbole angegeben, die über oder unter die Noten der Generalbassstimme geschrieben werden . Die genaue Realisierung der Akkorde ist damit dem Spieler überlassen und ist oft improvisiert. Diese lediglich „allgemeine“ Form, in der der Verlauf des Basses angegeben ist, führte dann zu der Bezeichnung „Generalbass“. Moderne Notenausgaben enthalten aber oft eine vom Herausgeber angefertigte mögliche Realisierung der Akkorde in Notenschrift. Sehr frühe Generalbassstimmen bei einfachen oder stilgebundenen Stücken haben oft keine Bezifferung, der Spieler kann dann die Akkorde aus dem musikalischen Zusammenhang erschließen. 3. Satz aus Georg Friedrich Händels Sonate op.
