 HOASM: Alessandro Grandi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The next year he became a singer and in 1620 vice-maestroat St Mark's, Venice, under Monteverdi, and from 1627 till his death of the plague he directed music at S. Maria Maggiore, Bergamo.
Grandi was one of the most talented north Italian composers of the early years of the seventeenth century.
His main contribution was to church music in the new concertato style: he published eleven volumes of motets, many of them exceptionally popular, three volumes of psalms, and five Masses; his secular output contained two books of concertato madrigals and four of solo cantatas and arias.

 Journal of Seventeenth-Century Music | Vol. 3 No. 1 | Review
Even such important composers as Alessandro Grandi were known by at most one or two works.
We were aware from the work of Roche and others of the treasure troves of sacred music lying untranscribed in libraries, but had to rely on their descriptions or on a few musical examples.
The composers represented range from the well known, such as Grandi, Legrenzi, Cavalli, and Agazzari, to the extraordinarily obscure: Bentivoglio Levà, Sisto Reina, and Gasparo Villani are among those that appear in the five volumes reviewed here.

 MU111: Web CD 8, Part 2
The second work on the CD is another monody--this time a sacred monody, "O quam tu pulchra es," by Alessandro Grandi.
Similarly, the love poetry of the Song of Songs of the Old Testament--from which this text is drawn-- came to be interpreted as referring allegorically to the Virgin Mary or to Christ's love for the Church.
The composer of this monody was Alessandro Grandi, who worked for a time as Monteverdi's assistant at St. Mark's in Venice.

 Heavenly Harmonies - Three Trebles from Blackburn Cathedral - Daniel Adams, James Holding and Thomas Croxson
Monteverdi took up his position at Venice at a relative low point for music at San Marco after the heady days of the 16th century, and one of the ways in which he revived the music was to bring in younger composers as deputies.
One such was Alessandro Grandi, who came to Venice in 1617 having been working at Ferrara Cathedral.
His motet O quam tu pulchra es sets words from the Song of Songs, and is very similar in style to Monteverdi’s motets.

Grandi was one of the only composers who continued to write involved vocal polyphony over the basso continuo right after its introduction--most composers using the continuo in the first decades of the 17th century wrote monodies, or preferred more homophonic textures.
