Music and Musicians in Renaissance Rome and Other Courts (Routledge Revivals) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

First published in 1999, the essays that follow have been selected from the author’s writings to explore musical institutions in 15^th and 16^th century Italy with a detailed focus on the papal choir, but with additional comments on Mantua (Mantova), Florence and France. Much of the material which formed the basis of those essays was largely drawn from archives. Richard Sherr explores diverse areas including the Medici coat of arms in a motet for Leo X, performance practice in the papal chapel during the 16^th century, the publications of Guglielmo Gonzaga, Lorenzo de’ Medici as a patron of music and homosexuality in late sixteenth-century Italy.
