Gall2

note:d’Albizo’s lauda- ‘Lauda della epiphania de’ magi’; in LA424, lauda sent to ‘Lorenzo prete di Santo Tommaso’ (crossed out; added in same hand: ‘al Magnificho Lorenzo de’ Medici’). Magi festivals in Florence were closely associated with the Medici since the time of Cosimo.

note: alternate cc. for both ‘O benigno’ & ‘Destati’ = ‘O rosa mia gentile’. Lauda text entered in R2929, which was copied by 1448.

note: No music survives with the text of ‘O benigno Signore’, but it is a cc. for at least two laude with traceable musical settings in Rz1563, ‘Alma che si gentile’, and ‘Signore, soccorr’ et aita’. ‘Alma che sì gentile/ti fe’ is a ballata grande w/rhyme scheme identical to ‘Deh dolce redentore’ (music in Rz1563; see reconstruction in MaceyS, 71-9), and ‘Deh dolce redentore’ & ‘O benigno Signore’ both serve as cc. for ‘Signore, soccorr’ et aita’. Antonio’s text ed. LanzaLT, i, 188-9.

note: alternate cc. = ‘O rosa’, ‘Non à lo cor’, ‘Più bel viso’ & d’Astore’s ‘Alma che sì gentile/ti fe’. See ‘Alma’ as cc. source for other laude.

note: alternate cc. = ‘Purità Dio ti mantenga’ (Gall2, Rs424). Song reconstructed from T of Cornago Mass of same name in GerberC, further reconstructed by AtlasAV, 109-20 (w/full discussion and fuller recovery of the cc. text). Melody also ed. in JeppesenF, iii, 128. The original poem and its melody were known at the Neapolitan court by ca. 1453.

note: alternate cc. = a ballo, ‘Quando Isaac ascende il monte cou [sic] Abraam’ (Gall2); alternate cc. in Gall4 = ‘Aimè ch’ i’ moro’ (with music in ModF.9.9 & P676).

note: alternate cc. = ‘Quanto più gli occhi mia’ (MC, f.48)
