Product Description

The Fifth book of madrigals starts to see much more development towards operatic style writing, with more songs being strung together to form scenas and with the addition of accompaniment on instruments. Some of these songs can be written by incorporating the accompaniment into the parts for those instruments which are resting, some will require more than a quintet. Certainly as we get into the next three books, reduction to a quintet will become increasingly more difficult, if not impossible.

Cruda Amarilli is a very evocative song, describing the cruelty sometimes inflicted upon each other by lovers. "Cruel Amarillis" is the translation of the first line and the fp in each part's entry emphasises that cruelty, along with the increased use of dissonance.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
