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.

This file contains the complete 5th book, including the final song which is for 9 parts.

Becuse the mp3 is so large and each individual song has its own, please see each song's page if you would like to hear it.
