The Italian Madrigal

Více o knize

Focusing on the Italian madrigal's evolution from its inception around 1500 to its decline in the 17th century, this comprehensive volume offers a cultural history of Italian music. Renowned musicologist Mr. Einstein provides a structured overview of composers, reassessing their contributions while highlighting the often-overlooked Cipriano de Rore. Beyond musicology, the work explores the role of secular music in Italian life during the Cinquecento, enriching our understanding of this significant era. Translated from German by notable scholars.
