Notes:
note: Fenlon/HaarIM, 151 (concordant sources); Lincoln, 311 (‘Voi ven’ andat’ al cielo’). Music ed. SeayJA, ii, no. 59. Arcadelt formally treats the poem like a ballata, musically setting off the first three lines as if they were a ripresa (xyY), but the text is too irregular to be a ballata.
note: Lincoln, 29; EinsteinIM, i, 269-71; Fenlon/HaarIM, 146 (concordant sources); MaceyFS, 357-60 (where he discusses the relationship between madrigal text, lauda text, and music, and edits both texts (369). Music ed. SeayJA, i, no. 18.
note: Fenlon/HaarIM, 173 (concordant sources). Alternate incipit for Arcadelt’s madrigal is ‘Ahimè, dov’è il bel viso’; Lincoln, 27. Music ed. SeayJA, i, no. 1.
