Composer:

Felice or Busnoys

Lauda:

Poi che t’ebbi nel core
Qr:7 (abba abba...)

Lauda Poet:

Francesco d’Albizo

Notes:

note: FallowsCat, 518-20; CattinNF, 206 (esp. n.50 for bib.); CattinR, no.108; RostirollaB, 740. 36 versions of ‘Fortuna’ are ed. in MeconiF. Settings a4 of lauda text transmitted in Grey & Panc27 (different music in Anim1563); ed. CattinG, no.35; CG version (w/Felice’s substitute bass) ed. AtlasCG, ii, 38. Panc27 reinforces the cc. link: the music (the original 3-voice song with an added si placet altus part) is underlaid with d’Albizo’s lauda text, but transmits the incipit ‘Fortuna disperata’ as well; ed. in MeconiF, no. 4. Lauda also transmitted in LA424 without cc., but indication that it was ‘sent to Ser Firenze, prete’. See also the Florentine quodlibet built on the ‘Fortuna’ melody in M164-7, ed. BecheriniT; MeconiF, no. 13; quodlibet strands ed. JeppesenF, iii, 56ff.

Composer:

Dufay

Lauda:

Se poi che vi partisti

Notes:

note: D’AnconaPP, 493 indicates that this lauda is transmitted in the lauda editions of 1510 and 1512 (ie., Gall4 and its Venetian reprint) with this cc. indication, but I have not been able to locate the piece in extant copies of these prints.

Le serviteur hault guerdonné-b R5:8 (aabba)

Language:

Composer:

Dufay

Lauda:

I’ so’l tuo servitor donna gentile
5:7/11 (AbBCB)

Notes:

note: D’Ancona (1906),435 refers to the version of Dufay’s rondeau transmitted in Pix, where five lines of an Italian poem with a different rhyme scheme and line lengths have been fitted to the five musical phrases of Dufay’s music. The Italian text is ed. in MSD47, no. 92, and appears to be a secular poem, however, and so is anomalous within the cantasi come tradition.

Lauda Poet:

Belcari

Notes:

note: FallowsCat, 251-4; CarboniE, 461-4; WilsonSC, 87; BrownM, 93; CattinCI, 422. See MSD47 & FallowsD for reaffirmation of ascription to Dufay. Music ed. ThibaultM, 52 (Cord); HanenE, no.67 (EscB); PopeM, 333 (MC); CMM1/vi, no. 92 (Porto), BrownF, ii, 240 (different music in BR229). Widely cited and arranged by Isaac, Agricola, Pullois, Busnois, Hanart, et al.; see FallowsCat. See FallowsOR for discussion of Bedyngham’s (?) unrelated musical setting from Tr90. The lauda text is attributed to Ser Firenze in Gall4, but it appears in Belcari’s own collection, M690, and so must be his.

Lauda:

Da poi che ‘l mondo rio-a
BaMz (xyZ ABABbcZ)

Notes:

note: FallowsCat, 506, where he proposes ‘Vaughe le gallee’ or ‘Et vaughe la gallee’ (see BrownM, 217; JeppesenF, iii, 59) as probable source of melody, with melodic & textual links to ‘Trois files estoient’ (see FallowsCat, 391; Japart’s setting in Pix, M107bis, Cas & P16664; related setting in CG [ed. AtlasCG, ii, 69] & Q16--’Vire le galee’), & the German ‘Allegalea’ (FallowsCat, 414; music in Bux, ed. EDM38, 232). See also AtlasCG, i, 210-11 on the texts (w/comparative transcriptions of excerpts from CG & Q16 versions). A related incipit transmitted with different music is ‘Voca la galiera’ (a4 in MC), the original text of which appears to be ‘Vray dieu d’amours confortez l’amoureux’ (see FallowsCat, 409 for widely dispersed, multiple versions based on same melody); music w/text incipit ‘Voca la galiera’ ed. PopeM, 157-8 & LuisiLG, ii, 157-8 (MC); ‘Vray dieu’ ed. in BernsteinN, 312 (Ver757), discussion 310-16. Italianized text ed. in GallicoRM, 207, 210, 217, 221; musical incipit on 141. Alternate cc. = ‘Dapoi che ‘l mio messere’. For a similar cc. text, but different melodic and cantasi come tradition, see ‘La vita della sgalera’ (linked to Belcari’s lauda ‘Tu che puoi’).
