= tact 4.
1740J. Grassineau Mus. Dict. 130 Metron, Tactus, Mensura, Battuta,—the beating or measuring the time by a motion of the hand or foot. 1786Busby Compl. Dict. Mus. s.v. Tactus, ..when the time consisted of a breve in a bar, the time-stroke was called Tactus-Major; and when of a semibreve in a bar, Tactus-Minor. 1959Collins Mus. Encycl. 644/1 A term used for ‘beat’ by the theorists of the 15th and 16th cent... The semibreve was the normal tactus in the 15th cent.; in the course of the 16th cent. the minim became the normal... With the introduction of bar-lines the semibreve became the unit of a bar and the measuring tactus was replaced by the metrical beat. 1980Early Music July 310/2 To sing the passage to a tactus, however, is to miss its raisson d'être and obliterate the most vital element of the madrigal's expressive scheme. |
