This paper sets forth an initial synthesis of the musical practices of the Marian sodalities established in the two former Belgian provinces. The musical history of the Belgian sodalities has been compiled on the basis of disparate and heterogeneous archival sources, which shed light on the musical practices of the Marian sodalities in two ways. First, they reveal the financial, human, and material resources brought together by the sodalities, as well as the close links maintained by the sodalities with the various local musical bodies. Secondly, the documents indicate two activities for which particular use of music was made: the yearly Marian feasts and the Lenten meetings for meditation. The information gathered from the archival sources can be cross-referenced here with some musical sources, most probably destined for the celebration of these feasts: 1) an international series of litany settings; 2) a corpus of musical works based on texts on the passion of Christ.

16 世纪至 18 世纪加洛和佛兰德罗比利时省玛丽安联谊会的音乐实践*

本文对在前比利时两个省建立的玛丽安联谊会的音乐实践进行了初步综合。比利时联谊会的音乐史是在不同和异质的档案资料的基础上编纂的，这从两个方面揭示了玛丽安联谊会的音乐实践。首先，它们揭示了社团汇集的财力、人力和物力资源，以及社团与当地各种音乐团体保持的密切联系。其次，这些文件指出了特别使用音乐的两项活动：每年的玛丽安节和四旬期冥想会议。从档案来源收集的信息可以在这里与一些音乐来源交叉引用，很可能是为了庆祝这些节日：1) 国际系列的一连串场景；2) 基于基督受难文本的音乐作品集。
