Rz1563

note: lauda re. Purification

note: lauda to San Romoaldo

note: RostirollaB, 712; Carboni-ZiinoLM, 279. Music ed. Mancuso, no. 47 (Rz1563); RostirollaTL, 28 (which differs from the setting in Rz1563); RC395 (tenor only, which matches tenor of Rz1563). Cc. in M365 attr. to A. Bettini. ‘Chi veder’ = lauda to San Francesco. Ferr84 melody is a version of Razzi’s melody; both ed. in Carboni-ZiinoLM, 329. 1589/2 transmits a3 setting identical to Anim1577, except with shortened candential melismas for the first stanza, and (as in Rz1563) a musically independent ‘seconda parte’ for the 2nd stanza. See ‘Io mi trovo’ as modo proprio.

note: Rz1563 provides music for ‘I’ mi truovo’, then indicates 5 laude that may be sung to this music: ‘Non si puo imaginar’, ‘Jubili tutto’l mondo al suo signor’ (Bettini), ‘Jubili tutto’l mondo al nascimento’ (Fabbroni), ‘Chi veder brama’, & ‘Ecco’l gran padre’. M365 lists ‘Jubili tutto’l mondo al suo Signore’ with no stated cc. (i.e. as modo proprio in this case), followed by 4 laude (all by Bettini) to be sung ‘come quella di sopra’: ‘Riscalda il verde prato’,’Ecco’l dominator’, ‘Venitene fratelli’, & ‘I’ mi truovo Jesù’. Presumably the music in Rz1563 that serves the texts of both ‘Io mi trovo’ and ‘Jubili tutto’l mondo...signore’ is in fact the music intended for these other texts in M365.

note: Savonarolan lauda, w/rubric in M365: ‘nella morte de fra N. a modo proprio’. See MaceyB, 129-31 (w/translation, music, and CD recording). Music ed. MaceyS, 86 (text ed. & trans. liv-lv); Mancuso, 402-4.

note: Nativity lauda. RostirollaB, 697-8. Text & music of Rz1563 ed. Mancuso, 441-3; facs. of Anim1577 in RostirollaTL, 29. Rz1563, transmits only the cantus part, and this is a contrafactum of Pesenti’s frottola, ‘Tu te lamenti a torto’ (the cc. given in RC395); the 8-measure setting of a sing quatrain is ed. in CesariLF, no. XLVII. There are vague similarities between the cantus melodies of the Roman (Anim1577,1583/3, 1589/2) and Razzi (a1) versions. Unrelated in text or music to Verdelot’s setting of Machiavelli’s canzona, ‘O dolce nocte’.

note: in Rz1563, music printed with text ‘Maria vergine bella’, and text of ‘Madre del gran signore/scala che ascendi’ on following page with no cantasi come indication, however the identity of the line lengths make certain the link. Music ed. LuisiLG,ii,73-4; Mancuso,663-9. Probably same as cc. = ‘O Maria vergine bella’, which is the cc. for a lauda (‘Diva vergine bella’) with an identical form. This text of the cc., a popular lauda, is ed. in Luisi, i, 274, where its structure as a ballata grande is clear (the fragmentary text in Rz1563 is transcribed in Mancuso, where she calls it a canzone).

note: Razzi lauda re. Sant’Agnese; cc. re. St. Cecilia. Music & text ed. Mancuso, no. 41. Cc. differs from d’Albizo’s ‘Laudiam con puro core Maria’.
