Trecento-Madrigal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The later 16th century madrigal is unrelated, although it often used texts written in the 14th century (for instance by Petrarch). 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. By the end of the 14th century it had fallen out of favor, with other forms (for example the ballata, the virelai, the rondeau) taking precedence, some of which were even more highly refined and ornamented. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Trecento-Madrigal   (262 words)

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. The madrigal has its origins in the frottola, and was also influenced by the motet and the French chanson of the Renaissance. The madrigal had a much longer life in England than in the rest of Europe: composers continued to produce works of astonishing quality even after the form had gone out of fashion on the Continent (see English Madrigal School). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Madrigal_(music)   (352 words)

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. 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. 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. www.columbia.edu /ccnmtl/draft/paul/sonic/madrigal14.html   (1304 words)

Knowledge King - Trecento-Madrigal Those madrigals, especially by Petrarch, became popular again from 1530 as texts for the new, and unrelated musical form, of the madrigal. At the end of the 14th and 15th century the term went out of musical use and turned into a literarical form (see poetical madrigal). Because of its rather simple construction, a primitive rhythmic and the secular texts it was not seen to be a noble form, Francesco da Barberino in 1300 called a "raw and chaotic singalong". www.knowledgeking.net /encyclopedia/t/tr/trecento_madrigal.html   (123 words)

HOASM: The Ars Nova in Italy After Paolo the madrigal was abandoned altogether, and the same may be said of the caccia, though Zacharias wrote a piece with an independent text in the tenor, portraying the hustle and bustle of the market-place. 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. His madrigals amount to no more than twelve, and of these the two-part ones are evidently the earliest and follow the pattern of the earlier generation, under whom Francesco seems to have studied. www.hoasm.org /IIIA/ArsNovaItaly.html   (6280 words)

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. 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. The early madrigals were set to four voices, however later madrigals used five as a rule but six or even eight or ten voiced madrigals were not unknown. www.mariotrane.com /pages/madrigals.htm   (1021 words)

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. The early 16th century madrigal was based heavily on the poetic aesthetics of the 14th century poet Petrarch. The 16th century madrigal as a poetic form was a one stanza poem using a free rhyme scheme and a fairly even mix of seven and eleven-syllable lines. www.vanderbilt.edu /htdocs/Blair/Courses/MUSL242/f98/jsheehan.htm   (1117 words)

Secular Song in Italy Madrigals were performed at academies (literary gatherings) and in courtly settings. The "Petrarchan" movement created a new genre, the madrigal, which carefully matched musical settings to the structure and meaning of the poem. By the end of the sixteenth century, madrigal composers began expanding the harmonic vocabulary to express the texts more forcefully. www.wwnorton.com /concise/ch7_outline1.htm   (389 words)

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. This madrigal, which has no relationship to the madrigal of the late Renaissance, was originally associated with the aristocracy, and gradually gave way in republican Florence to the more popular, dance-derived ballata. 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. www.thenightowl.com /reviews/malapunica.htm   (601 words)

iClassics Most early madrigals, dating from about 1520 to 1550, were set for four voices; after the middle of the century five voices became the rule, and settings for six or more parts were not unusual. 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. www.iclassics.com /periodArticle?contentId=3030   (426 words)

ITALIAN RENAISSANCE FACTS AND INFORMATION The most famous composer in Italy in the 14th century was Francesco_Landini, and the principal forms were the trecento madrigal, the caccia, and the ballata. Composers of madrigals included Jacques_Arcadelt, at the beginning of the age, Cipriano_de_Rore, in the middle of the century, and Luca_Marenzio, Philippe_de_Monte, and Claudio_Monteverdi at the end of the era. 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. www.flowergods.com /Italian_Renaissance   (5422 words)

Madrigal (Musik) Nicht verwandt ist das Madrigal mit dem italienischen Trecento-Madrigal des späten 13 und frühen 14. Das Madrigal geht auf in Formen wie Kantate und Dialog, als selbstständige Form hört sie auf zu existieren, später entstandene Beispiele sind in der Regel reine Rückgriffe auf ein abgeschlossenes Formenrepertoire.

HOASM: The Florentine Group The text of Jacopo da Bologna's madrigal, Uselletto selvaggio, says that everybody is writing ballate, madrigals, and motets, that all are blossoming forth as "Filipotti et Marchetti" (the ironic metaphor referring to Philippe de Vitry and Marchettus of Padua). 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. It is his creative force and that of composers of his generation--Jacopo da Bologna, Piero, Lorenzo--that gave trecento music its native impetus. www.hoasm.org /IIIA/IIIAFlorentineGroup.html   (795 words)

Medieval Music Later, in the late 14th and early 15th centuries, Ars Nova and Trecento composition became somewhat "mannerist" and is called "Ars Subtilior" (Subtler Art). 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). The Pope was condemning some of the new 14th-century practices, what theorist and composer Philippe de Vitry (1291-1361) coined as "Ars Nova" -- the new art. www.wsu.edu /~delahoyd/medieval/ars.nova.html   (776 words)

Music - Extant Trecento Music Unlike the madrigal and the caccia, the ballatas of the Decameron were monophonic (i.e., they consisted of a single line of music). Indigenous Italian music experienced one of its most prolific periods in the Trecento.

Tuscan ties lead to look at 14th century culture Beck’s interest in the 14th century, “Trecento” in Italian, is based upon the interrelationship of the arts during that time. Singing in the Garden: Music and Culture in the Tuscan Trecento is the outgrowth of Beck’s affection for Italy and the 14th century. The writer Boccaccio “steps out from behind his stories, assembling and commenting on the criticism he foresees And 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. www.lclark.edu /cgi-bin/shownews.cgi?0937447320.1   (485 words)

Ghirardello da Firenze Judging by the preservation of his output, he was one of the most respected composers of the middle decades of the Trecento. Ghirardello da Firenze (c.1320-1362) was the leading Italian composer of the middle fourteenth century, and one of the main figures who established the Florentine dominance of the Ars Nova style in Italy. Previously, Italian music was relatively uncomplicated compared to that originating from the orbit of Paris. www.medieval.org /emfaq/cds/nuo7151.htm   (273 words)
