Volume 3 of 3. This monumental three-volume work on the Italian
madrigal from its beginnings about 1500 to its decline in the 17th
century is based on the research of 40 years, and is a cultural
history of the development of Italian music. Mr. Einstein, renowned
musicologist, supplies a background and a sense of proportion to
the field: he gives the right order to the single composers in the
evolution fo the madrigal, attaches new values to old names, and
places in the foreground the outstanding, but until now rather
neglected, personality of Cipriano de Rore. His work is not,
however, purely musicological; his object is to inquire into the
functions of secular music in Italian life during the Cinquecento,
and to contribute to our knowledge and understanding of that great
century in general. Translated from the German by Oliver Strunk,
Roger Sessions and Alexander H. Krappe. Originally published in
1948. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
