BaG:8 (xyyx ababbyyx)

Lauda Poet: 

Lorenzo de’ Medici

Notes: 

note: there is no cc. source that specifies Lorenzo’s carnival song a singing model for his lauda, but RC395 transmits the music as well as the cc. indication for a ‘modo proprio’ for his lauda; this can only refer to his carnival song, which is clearly the model for his lauda. Carnival song text ed. OrvietoCC, 80-82. Music ed. with carnival song text in RubsamenQ, 181-2, and GallucciFFM, 6-7. BR230, fol. 150r, transmits untexted T & B parts of ‘Quant’è bella’ (folio with texted cantus part missing from codex).

Nè più belle di queste Cz (AbAbcddcEE)

Language: 

it-carn

Composer: 

Heinrich Isaac

Lauda: 

Vergine santa, gloriosa, e degna
Cz (AbAbcddcdEE)

Lauda Poet: 

Angelo Poliziano

Notes: 

note: cc. refers to a Carnival song, the ‘Canzona delle dèe’. See MaceyB, 57. Music & text of carnival song ed. GallucciFFM, 26-8. Lauda discussed in Mancuso, 126-8; music & text ed. 758-64. Rz1563 preserves intact the music of Isaac’s 4-part setting. Rubric at end of the music in Rz1563 indicates that this lauda with Isaac’s music was sung at Orsanmichele (‘cantasi a Orsanmichele...’). The lauda is clearly modeled on the carnival song text, or perhaps in this case it was the other way around (both poems share the 2nd part of the 3rd line, for ex.: ‘...che nel ciel [su] regna’. The reading of Poliziano’s poem in Rz1563 is corrupt (e.g., ‘gloriosa’ for ‘immaculata’ in line 1, a completely different text for line 5, and Poliziano’s line 7, ‘per te sola si sente’, is missing), which is probably why the editor of the Rz1563 was reluctant to underlay the lauda text to the music (see Mancuso, 126-7). For the lauda text, see S. Orlando, ed. Angelo Poliziano: Poesie Italiane, Milan, Rizzoli 1976, p. 231.
