Abstract
The well-known title page used by Michael Praetorius for several of his publications provides a starting-point for a discussion of the way large-scale music was directed in early seventeenth-century Germany. The practice of depicting composers with rolls of paper is discussed, as is the nature of seventeenth-century time-beating and how it differed from modern conducting.
