"A comparative analysis of 18 settings of Petrarch's ""Tutto'l dipiango; e poi la notte, quando"""

Abstract

dc:description

"This thesis compares eighteen different musical settings of the Petrarch sonnet ""Tutto'l di piango; e poi la notte, quando."" These settings include two unattributed recitation formulas from the Rocco Rodio Anthology and the Bottegari Lutebook, thirteen polyphonic settings by two anonymous composers, Girolamo Scotto, Cipriano de Rore, Vincenzo Ruffo, Sperindio Bertholdo, Francesco della Viola, Dominico Magiello, Orlando di Lasso, Francesco Portinaro, Filippo di Monte, and Luca Marenzio, and three monodies by Jacopo Peri, Giulio Caccini, and Sigismondo d'India. The purpose of the study is to trace the development of the relation of music and text in the Renaissance polyphonic and monodic madrigal. The Petrarch sonnet was chosen both because of the central literary importance of the trecento poet to the literary and musical aesthetics of sixteenth-century madrigal composers, and because of the stylistic breadth represented by the large number of musical settings of this particular sonnet."
