	Giulio Caccini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With Caccini's abilities as a singer, instrumentalist, and composer added to the mix of intellects and talents, the Camerata developed the concept of monody—an emotionally affective solo vocal line, accompanied by relatively simple chordal harmony on one or more instruments—which was a revolutionary departure from the polyphonic practice of the late Renaissance.
		Caccini's character seems to have been less than perfectly honorable, as he was frequently motivated by envy and jealousy, not only in his professional life but for personal advancement with the Medici.
		Caccini's achievement was to create a type of direct musical expression, as easily understood as speech, which later developed into the operatic recitative, and which influenced numerous other stylistic and textural elements in Baroque music.

		Cosimo Caccini was born in Florence and chose the religious life before he had turned fifteen.
		Caccini soon showed that he had a talent for preaching, and soon after his novitiate he was already preaching Lenten sermons in the church of Santa Maria Novella.
		Caccini was, however, a pale echo of Savanarola: his fanaticism was never divorced from personal ambition for advancement within the Dominican order.

		Francesca Caccini (September 18, 1587 – probably 1640) was an Italian composer, singer, lutenist, and music teacher of the early Baroque era.
		Indeed, Caccini boasts of having invented the genre himself, although there are some examples prior to his publications entitled "Nuove Musiche" in 1602 and 1614.
		During the 1570s and 1580s he began a celebrated association with the "camerata" of Florence, and partly under the influence of its members--including Vincenzo Galilei and Bardi --he began composing in a vocal style that, as he declared, more closely approximated speech.

		In 1602 (1601 old style) Caccini published the epoch-making Le nuove musiche,a collection of solo songs with basso continuo;its preface discusses the monodic style in detail, describing the proper way to ornament a song and warning against abuse.
		Beginning about 1610 Caccini frequently took part in chamber concerts for Grand Duke Ferdinando de' Medici; 1610 was also the year in which he was made director of sacred music at S. Nicola.

		Caccini and Cavalieri wrote in a style based on the madrigal and on the old improvised air for singing poetry.
		Caccini boasted in his foreword that the madrigal Perfidissimo volto was greeted in Bardi's Camerata around 1590 "with affectionate applause." Each line of poetry is set as a separate phrase, ending either in a cadence or a sustained note or pair of notes.
		The ornaments that Caccini considered essential were crescendos and decrescendos, trills (called gruppi), rapid repetitions of the same pitch (called trilli), "exclamations," a sforzando at the point of releasing a tone, and departures from strict observance of the printed note values, or what we call tempo rubato.

		(1558-1615?), Italian musical composer, also known as Giulio Romano, but to be distinguished from the painter of that name, was born at Rome about 1558, and in 1578 entered the service of the grand duke of Tuscany at Florence.
		He collaborated with J. Pen in the early attempts at musical drama which were the ancestors of modern opera (Dafne, 1594, and Euridice, 1600), produced at Florence by the circle of musicians and amateurs which met at the houses of G. Bardi and Corsi.
		He was a lyric composer rather than a dramatist like Pen, and the genuine beauty of his works makes them acceptable even at the present day.

		She had married Caccini by the time the family made its tour to France in Autumn 1604; in the preface to Le nuove musiche (the dedication is dated 1 February 1601/2), however, Caccini refers (with some respect) to his “moglie passata,” i.e., Lucia, who was excellent in performing trilli.
		Pompeo Caccini became involved with her when teaching her a “prologue” for the 1600 festivities at the request of Jacopo Corsi and Ottavio Rinuccini, which leads McGee (plausibly enough) to suggest that this was the prologue to Euridice.
