Marc'Antonio Ingegneri |
 | | Marc'Antonio Ingegneri was born in Verona, the son of a goldsmith between 1535 and 1536. |
 | | Ingegneri's madrigal is one of the earliest musical settings that relates to any of the Ferrarese ladies, and it is remarkable for the way it attempts to convey something of the musical elements of her performance. |
 | | Ingegneri must have had access to a manuscript copy of the text, as it was not published until 1598, but he does not set it in a fashion that suggests performance by women. |
