	MALA PUNICA, PEDRO MEMELSDORFF, DIR.: Narcisso speculando (Harmonia Mundi)
		Don Paolo di Marco (1355-1436), Benedictine abbot and tenorista, was among the second generation of Trecento composers who wrote primarily secular works, establishing three new musical/poetic forms of secular polyphony: the madrigal, the caccia, and the ballata.
		Mala Punica, founded in 1987, by its director and flutist Pedro Memelsdorff, has established itself, through a series of recordings on Arcana and Erato, as the foremost proponent of the music of the Trecento, and of the subsequent period, the Ars Subtilior.
		Typically, Paolo's madrigals consist of two or three three-line poetic stanzas, terzetti, each sung to the same music, followed by a two-line ritornello, sung to different music in another meter.

		The madrigal was the most important genre of Italian secular music in the 16th century.
		The word "voices" is to be taken literally: the madrigal was a piece of vocal chamber music intended performance with one singer to a part.
		The early 16th-century madrigal had no refrains or any other features of the old formes fixes, with patterned repetitions of musical and textual phrases.

	HOASM: The Ars Nova in Italy
		It is typical of the madrigal style that almost staccato passages with one syllable to a note contrast vividly with coloraturas, and, unlike early Ars Nova French music, triplets occur frequently in passages which are essentially in duple rhythms.
		Indeed, there are many such cases where musicians did not write their own poems, though such names as Petrarch and Boccaccio do not often occur in Italian music of this period.
		Antonio da Civitate was one of the few composers of the late trecento who wrote in isorhythmic motet style, for instance in a piece in honour of Giorgio Ordelaffi, lord of Forli, and his wife.

	ITALIAN RENAISSANCE FACTS AND INFORMATION
		By far the most famous composer of church music in 16th_century Italy was Palestrina, the most prominent member of the Roman_School, whose style of smooth, emotionally cool polyphony was to become the defining sound of the late 16th century, at least for generations of 19th- and 20th_century musicologists.
		Overall, the musical style of the period is sometimes labelled as the "Italian ars_nova."
		In Italy in the 14th century there was an explosion of musical activity that corresponded in scope and level of innovation to the activity in the other arts.

	HOASM: The Florentine Group
		The period of Italian trecento music does not actually coincide with the span of the 14th century: it begins about 1325 and ends about 1425.
		Dante numbered among his friends many painters and musicians; unfortunately the works of these musicians have not been preserved, especially those of Dante's friend.
		It is his creative force and that of composers of his generation--Jacopo da Bologna, Piero, Lorenzo--that gave trecento music its native impetus.

	Music - Extant Trecento Music
		Indigenous Italian music experienced one of its most prolific periods in the Trecento.
		Unlike the madrigal and the caccia, the ballatas of the Decameron were monophonic (i.e., they consisted of a single line of music).
		These composers wrote chiefly secular pieces such as ballatas, madrigals and caccias.

	Francesco Landini: Works List & Discography
		Francesco Landini (c.1325-1397) was the most widely praised composer of the Italian Ars Nova, and a leading representative of the Florentine style which came to dominate subsequent appraisal of the art and music of the Trecento.
		In any case, the center of Italian music in the Ars Nova style moved from Venice to Florence during the period, a period during which Landini was the most prominent of an accomplished group of composers.
		It did not survive the Franco-Flemish Renaissance; the use of the madrigal form by Landini and other composers of his era is not connected to the flowering of that genre in the 16th century.

		Certainly the opposite practice of singing Italian madrigals with "Englished" texts was very popular in England, beginning with Nicholas Yonge's _Musica Transalpina_ (1588), and may have contributed to the ready popularity of the genre.
		Through most of the 15th century, I would say that French against comes into pre-eminence, and that we probably have to move forward to the madrigal in your likely intended cinquecento sense to reach an age where Italian becomes a leading language of secular music.
		I've also seen at least one school collection of madrigals and similar words where translations into English are made available along with the original texts, likely to assist students who may be unfamiliar with the original languages.

	Trecento-Madrigal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The text of the madrigal is divided into three sections: two strophes called terzetti set to the same music and a concluding section called the ritornello usually in a different meter.
		The center of musical activity apparently moved at this time from northern Italy to France, particularly Avignon.
		The later 16th century madrigal is unrelated, although it often used texts written in the 14th century (for instance by Petrarch).

	Madrigal (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is related mostly by name alone to the Italian trecento-madrigal of the late 13th and 14th centuries; those madrigals were settings for 2 or 3 voices without accompaniment, or with instruments possibly doubling the vocal lines.
		This technique is also known as "word-painting" and can be found not only in madrigals but in other vocal music of the period.
		The madrigal has its origins in the frottola, and was also influenced by the motet and the French chanson of the Renaissance.

	Sonic Glossary: Madrigal 14th Century
		The 14th-century madrigal -- also called the "trecento madrigal" -- was a musical genre comprising a polyphonic setting for two or three voices of a poem in Italian.
		The verse for the 14th-century Italian madrigal is cast in a fixed form that also determines the structure of the music to which it is set.
		Madrigals written for three voices or parts were much less common, except for the special hybrid genre known as the caccia-madrigal, for which use was made of the canonic imitation of the caccia and the poetic form of the madrigal.

	Later Developments Of Songs and Madrigals
		The "trecento" madrigal was a strophic song with a refrain and it's popularity propelled Italy into the center of European musical development.
		In France however, the effects of the Italian madrigal on French music is evident in the period from 1560 to 1575.
		The madrigals rise in popularity was intertwined with the rise in the popularity of Italian poetry, and the two forms were bound by the same tastes.

	MUSL 242: A 16th Century Madrigal by any other name...
		It is inconceivable that the musical language of the 14th century madrigal was used even as a basis for the 16th century madrigal for the simple reason that the notation used in the 14th century could not be read in the 16th century.
		While this is not as exciting as attributing the invention of the Madrigal to Madrigallus, a musician invented by a German music historian named Wolfgang Kaspar Printz, it appears to be more accurate.
		From this point, the madrigal continued to evolve and spread across Europe and England, becoming the dominant secular musical genre of the 16th century.

	Tuscan ties lead to look at 14th century culture
		Singing in the Garden: Music and Culture in the Tuscan Trecento is the outgrowth of Beck’s affection for Italy and the 14th century.
		Beck’s interest in the 14th century, “Trecento” in Italian, is based upon the interrelationship of the arts during that time.
		The writer Boccaccio “steps out from behind his stories, assembling and commenting on the criticism he foreseesAnd the composers associated with the ‘self-reverential’ madrigals—Giovanni da Cascia, Jacopa da Bologna, Lorenzo Masini and Francesco Landini—assert their own personalities in the otherwise abstract tableau of madrigal poetry,” Beck writes.

		The 14th-century version was composed for two or maybe three voices in AAB format (with B perhaps being a two-line ritornello often involving a metrical change from the A parts).
		Later, in the late 14th and early 15th centuries, Ars Nova and Trecento composition became somewhat "mannerist" and is called "Ars Subtilior" (Subtler Art).
