Lauda Poet: 

Petrarch

Notes: 

Note: FallowsCat, 565-6; Mancuso, 125-7; RostirollaLC, 783-4, 847. Dufay setting ed. CMM1/vi(r), no. 5; DuffinD, 62; facs. in PlanchartW (Q15, Ox). Rz1563 setting a2 & Razzi melody from Pal173 ed. in LuisiLG, ii, 137-9; Mancuso, 270-76. Text ed. in LG, i, 269 (attr. to Giustinian in many sources). See ‘Vergene bella gratiosa et pura’ in Ven145, w/melodic similarities. Later settings of text by Tromboncino (1510), & Rz1563, w/some melodic similarities (JeppesenF, ii, 105). In Pal173, Razzi presents a cantus melody for the first two lines, and this differs completely from either Dufay’s chanson or Rz1563.

Deduto sey a quel che mai-b BaG:11

Language: 

it

Composer: 

Antonio Zacara da Teramo

Lauda: 

O pace benedetta-a
BaG (xyyX aBaBbccX)

Notes: 

note: In Ch266, 32v, the cc. rubric citing ‘Deduto sey’ falls between ‘O pace benedetta’ and ‘Nostr’avocata se’ et sempre fosti’, and appears to refer to the first of these. However, the mixed line lengths of ‘O pace’ are incompatible with ‘Deduto sey’, while those of ‘Nostr’ avocata’ (which also appears on fol. 126r bearing ‘Deduto sey’ as a cc.) are compatible.

Invidia nimicha de ciascun virtuoso BaG:7 (xyyx ababbccx)

Language: 

it

Composer: 

Dufay

Lauda: 

La carne m’ è nimica
BaG:7/5

Notes: 

note: cc. title is ‘Invidia al ciel nimicha’, but FallowsCat, 525-6 argues for the close connection between these two versions of the cc. title. Incipit echoes Petrarch’s sonnet ‘O invidia nimica di vertute’. Music ed. in DuffinD, 60 and CMM1/vi(r), no. 2 (Ox); earlier CMM1/vi unreliable for this piece.

note: FallowsCat, 508; Diederichs, 90-99. Alternate cc. for ‘Tu che poi’ = ‘La vita della sgalera’ (Gall2). Lauda re. San Lorenzo.

A different a3 setting of ‘Con desiderio’ (found in Cord w/lauda text ‘Ben lo sa Dio’ & ed. in ThibaultM, 4-5; see FallowsCat, 504-5) is related to the identical versions in Grey (ed. CattinG, no.22) & Panc27 (LuisiLG, ii, 32 & Diederichs, 302). Text of ‘Con desiderio’ ed. LuisiLG, i, 292-3.
