Description

This 1988 book examines the genesis and dissemination of the Italian madrigal in its formative stages.

Iain Fenlon and James Haar have analysed this vast repertoire as it is found in manuscript and print offer information concerning the date and provenance of many fundamental sources together with a view of the subject which differs radically from previous treatments.

Their study is divided into two parts. The first covers the rise and early cultivation of the madrigal, chiefly in Florence and Rome.

The second contains a detailed descriptive inventory of all known manuscripts and printed editions, finishing with lists of contents and concordances in each case.

This important study will serve those with an interest in Renaissance music and the changing cultural ambience of early sixteenth-century Florence and Rome.
