  Girolamo Diruta - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
Diruta's major work is a treatise in two parts on organ playing, counterpoint, and composition, entitled Il transilvano (The Transylvanian); it is in the form of a dialog with Istvan de Josíka, a diplomat from Transylvania whom Diruta met during one of Josíka's missions to Italy.
As a contrapuntist, Diruta anticipates Fux in describing the different "species" of counterpoint: note against note, two notes against one, suspensions, four notes against one, and so forth.
Diruta included many of his own compositions in Il transilvano, and they are mostly didactic in nature, showing different kinds of figuration, and presenting different kinds of performance problems.

 Susanne un jour
So wrote Girolamo Diruta, a monk from Umbria, in his Il Transilvano, an exhaustive treatise on keyboard playing, the first volume of which was printed in Venice in 1593.
Diruta tells his pupil, a Hungarian prince, that the works of 'Signor Claudio' contain all that is needed in learning to play "with polish and charm".
Such titles confirm that, despite the impression given by Diruta, quilled keyboard instruments (harpsichord, virginals, spinet) were used in a wider range of repertoire than just dances and popular songs, including forms that originally had a primarily liturgical function: the toccata, canzona and ricercar.

 Journal of Seventeenth-Century Music | Vol. 4 No. 1 | Schulenberg: Some Problems of Text, Attribution, and Performance ...
Yet most of the keyboard music played during this period was not printed; much of it was not written down at all, and the duties of most keyboard players included substantial amounts of improvisation--whether accompanying from a continuo part or short score or filling in parts of a church service.
Hence our concentration on printed music, and especially the carefully prepared publications of Girolamo Frescobaldi, may give us a somewhat skewed view of what keyboard music was like during the period and of the manner in which it was played.
The nomenclature of "good" and "bad" notes, used, e.g., by Girolamo Diruta, Il transilvano (Venice, 1593-1610), derives from the fact that in sixteenth-century embellishments (divisions) "good" notes are consonant whereas "bad" notes tend to be passing dissonances.

 Claudio Merulo Summary
Merulo enjoyed such a reputation as a performer that his practice and teaching were made central in the definitive work on performance that came from the pen of his pupil Girolamo Diruta (II Transilvano, part I, 1593; part II, 1608).
The first mention of his name, after the record of his baptism, is in a legal deposition for Antonio Zantani, in Venice in 1555: therefore, Merulo was close to important names of Venetian society before his employment in Brescia, at Duomo Vecchio, as organist.
The famous essay of keyboard technique Il Transilvano (1593), by Girolamo Diruta, was dedicated to Merulo, and symbolize the consecration of Merul as one of the most important keyboard players of Renaissance.

 The Classical Toccata Information Page on Classic Cat
Several publications of the 1590s include toccatas, by composers such as Girolamo Diruta, Adriano Banchieri, Claudio Merulo, Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli, Luzzasco Luzzaschi and others.
These are keyboard compositions in which one hand, and then the other, performs virtuosic runs and brilliant cascading passages against a chordal accompaniment in the other hand.
The Baroque toccata, beginning with Girolamo Frescobaldi, is more sectional and increases in length, intensity and virtuosity from the Renaissance version, reaching heights of extravagance equivalent to the overwhelming detail seen in the architecture of the period.

 Johann Fux Summary
In 1610 Girolamo Diruta, a composer of the Venetian school, published Il Transilvano, which presented the Renaissance polyphonic style as a series of types: one note against one note, two notes against one note, suspensions, and so forth.
Fux's work repeated some of Diruta's, possibly coincidentally, since he is not known to have had a copy: in any event, Fux presented the idea with a clarity and focus which made it famous as a teaching method.
In species counterpoint, as given in Fux, the student is to master writing counterpoint in each species before moving on to the next.

It was the first attempt to treat of the organ seperatily as in instrument that required a method of treatment and of finger technique distinct from that used for the clavier.
