<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Palatino">Today, triple meters are deceptively familiar. We routinely introduce them in the context of fundamentals courses as though they were enduring, immutable facets of musical notation and performance. But
has triple time always been the same? Research in historical music theory suggests the existence of multiple types of triple meters, differing in terminology, notation, musical style, and tempo. What’s more, these different types of triples may have persisted
through complex changes in mensural theory, compositional practice, and print history. Certain basic questions—such as how many beats each triple measure contained and the proper duration of each beat—require careful attention to historical sources. In this
workshop we will collectively and interactively explore several quandaries concerning triple division, drawing connections in historical music theory from the fifteenth through the eighteenth centuries. All are welcome to join and participate!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
