Talk about this piece

Answer 34

NAWM 353 Carlo Gesualdo (c1561-1613): *“Io* *parto**” e* *non* *più* *dissi* * Text by **contemporary** poet (Not Petrarch) * Significant because by the end of 16th century, they move away from old-fashioned poet and setting text by living poets of the day * **Not a sonnet** (A poem of fourteen lines using any of a number of formal rhyme schemes, in English typically having ten syllables per line. ) * Free form of poetry * Text: dialogue between lovers * Switch between Direct Speech (What's in quotations) and a Narrator * Lots of **Chromaticism** * Look for accidentals in the melodic lines * Contrast between **consonance/dissonance** * You'll hear more dissonance * Consonance shines through like a light in the darkness * **Disconnected melodic lines** * Sad sounding notes on the word grief * Uneven texture and style * Sounds almost operatic * Switch between recit and singing. Shifts gears a lot. * Texture always shifts. * Bits of homophony and imitation. Not like Josquin * Stravinsky orchestrated 3 of his madrigals * Hard, couldn't sight read. Too complicated. * Sung by **concerto** **delle** **donne** **(professional female ensemble)** * Compare to Jacques Arcadealt (1507-1568) -- first generation Madrigalist which was more consonant and easier to sing.
