Rz1563 (a3)

note: ‘Frati venite’ re. Corpus Domini. Rz1563 music & text (‘In nulla’) ed. Mancuso, 749-51. Cantus melody also transmitted in Ferr84 w/text ‘Frati venite’; ed. Carboni-ZiinoLM, 323. Ferr84 w/cc = Belcari’s ‘Jesù sommo diletto e vero lume’). ‘In nulla’ attr. to Fr. Giovanni da San Piero dell’ordine di san francescho’ in CS1544. Without attr. or cc. in Gall2. See ‘In nulla’ as a lauda w/several secular cc. titles that may represent the original text (e.g. ‘Leggiadra damigella’).

note: lauda re San Tomaso d’Aquino

note: Razzi’s lauda re. San Domenico. In earlier sources, cc. for ‘Cristo ver’ = ‘Da poi ch’io ti lassai’ & ‘Laudate el sommo Dio’ (see latter as a cc. for bibliography). On ‘Cristo ver’, see CummingsP, 143-7 (texts of both ‘Cristo ver’, and its cc. ‘Laudate il sommo dio’ ed. 145, music on 146-7). Music w/Belcari’s text ed. Mancuso, 416-20.

note: lauda re. S. Apollonia; cc. ‘per i Novizi’. Mancuso, 104 suggests that the text and melody of ‘Lo fraticello’ are modeled on ‘La pastorella si leva per tempo’, preserved in the mid-16thc. Florentine ms. M108. Text & music of cc. ed. Mancuso, no. 64.

note: Music & text of Razzi’s lauda ed. Mancuso, 611-15. Lauda re. S. Antonio. See ‘Vo’ gir a Roma’ as cc. for ‘Vo’ gir all’hermo’.

note: despite the similarity between this lauda incipit and another (‘Si ch’ i’ la vo seguire nessun’ altra offesa’), the latter is a secular song with a different form, and was set by Layolle and Cara.

note: see ‘Si ch’ i’ la...Magdalena’ as modo proprio (the cantus of the Rz1563 version is borrowed from a 5-part canzonetta (w/same incipit) by Francesco Layolle.

note: this lauda = cc. for two others in LCS161: ‘Si ch’i’ la vo seguire quel alma’, ‘Si ch’i’ la vo seguire et nessun’ altra’, and several others besides. The cantus of Razzi’s version is borrowed, intact, from the 2nd superius of Francesco Layolle’s 5-part ‘Si ch’io la vo seguire nessun’altra offesa’; ed. D’AcconeMFR, iii, no. 19. Text & music ed. Mancuso, no. 75. Cara’s musically independent 4-part setting of the same text (‘Si che la vo’seguire/e niuna alta offesa’) is in PetF/xi, and text and music are ed. in LuisiFr, no. 1; this text is formally identical to the others in the cc. sources, suggesting that these ‘Si ch’i’ la vo seguire’ texts are interrelated.

note: lauda re. Corpus Domini.
