WHAT DOES CLAUSULA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Clausula

In Roman rhetoric, a clausula was a rhythmic figure used to add finesse and finality to the end of a sentence or phrase. There was a large range of popular clausulae. Most well known is the classically Ciceronian "esse videatur" type. In late medieval Western music, a clausula was a newly composed polyphonic section for two or more voices sung in discant style over a cantus firmus. Clausulae eventually became used as substitutes for passages of original plainchant. They occur as melismatic figures based on a single word or syllable within an organum. The text of a clausula differs from that of the plainchant melody underneath it. Each clausula is clearly delineated by a final cadence. Clausulae emerged from the compositional practices of the Notre Dame school in Paris c. 1160–1250, especially those of the composers Léonin and Pérotin. Rather than write entirely new music, the preference was to take existing music, that is, plainchant melodies, and develop or improve upon them. Pérotin's clausulae make use of the rhythmic modes, whose strict metrical feet necessitated that voices change notes together.
