Il TRIONFO di DORI
The 29 Madrigals of the 1592 Collection
For Six Voices
Edited by
Harrison Powley
GM3204 – $22.50
This first modern performing edition of Il trionfo di Dori finally makes available to singers one of the most admired and enjoyed collections of sixteenth-century vocal ensemble music. That the original publication of this remarkable Italian collection of twenty nine six-part madrigals by twenty-nine different composers and poets enjoyed both broad dissemination and immediate popularity is confirmed by its contemporary reflections in several German translations, transformations, and reprint editions and in the equally popular English anthology The Truimphes of Oriana edited by Thomas Morley. In mirroring Il trionfo, for example, Morley no doubt consciously imitates the final binding line of each of the Italian madrigals, “Viva la bella Dori”, with the phrase “Long live fair Oriana”.
ALL MADRIGALS ARE AVAILABLE AS OCTAVOS (See Catalog)
