O partita crudele-a Str

Language:

Lauda: 

O dolce padre santo Domenico
BaG?:7/5 (xyyx abcabcbx)

Lauda Poet: 

Feo Belcari

Notes: 

note: See FallowsCat, 543-4. Music ed. Hernon, 460 (Per431, but textless in ms.); GhisiStr, 65 (excerpt). CattinR, 40 & GhisiStr, 64 note that ‘Partita crudele’ is the title of a ballo mentioned by the 15thc. dancing master Guglielmo Ebreo. Guglielmo corresponded with the Medici, and there is evidence his balli were known to Florentines; see Barbara Sparti, Guglielmo Ebreo of Pesaro: De pratica seu arte tripudii [On the Practice or Art of Dancing], Oxford, Clarendon Press 1993, p. 36 (on ‘Partita crudele’ as a bassadanza), pp. 41-2, 48-9. CattinNR, 231 suggests that a strambotto in the MC with the title ‘Quanto mi dolse sta crudel partita’ may be related to the cc.; ed. PopeM, no. 125. On possible interrrelationships between ‘O partita crudele’ (Per431), ‘Crudele’ (P676; see also ‘O crudel donna’ as a cc. ), and ‘Quanto mi dolse sta crudel partita’ (MC), see PopeM, 652, and GhisiStr, 64-6 (excerpts of all three pieces are transcribed and compared on 65-6). For a different Belcari lauda, O Jesù, sommo bene’, Gall2 gives the cc. title as ‘O partita crudele ed oimè.’

Lauda: 

Tu che puoi quel che tu vuoi-b
Qr:7/8 (abba cddc...)

Lauda Poet: 

Feo Belcari

Notes: 

note: see FallowsCat, 533; GallicoRM, 103. Melodic fragment of cc. transmitted in a 4-voice quodlibet on ‘Fortuna desperata’ in M164-7; ed. PopeM, 571; BeccheriniT, 89; JeppesenF, iii, 59. Melody probably not related to ‘Vaughe le gallee’, or ’Voca la galiera’ (PopeM, 571-2, with notes re. pieces with similar text incipits in Pix & CG; see ‘Canti di ghalea’). Lauda re. San Lorenzo. Alternate cc. in M690 & R2896 for ‘Tu che puoi’ = ‘Con desiderio vo cercando’. LuisiLG, ii, 157-8 unconvincingly sets text of ‘Con desiderio’ to music of ‘Voca la galiera’ (MC).
