Florence Cathedral, familiarly called Il Duomo, is an architectural
masterpiece and home to celebrated works of art. The
interrelationship between the brilliant art and architecture and
the Cathedral's musical program is explored in depth in this
beautiful book. Perhaps the most beloved example is Luca della
Robbia's sculptural program for the organ loft, comprising ten
sculptural relief panels that depict children singing, dancing, and
making music. Luca's charming sculptures are examined alongside
luxurious illuminated manuscripts commissioned for musical
performances. Essays by distinguished scholars provide new insights
into the original function and meaning of Luca's sculptures; organs
and organists during the 15th century; the roles played by women
and girls-as well as men and boys-in making music throughout
Renaissance Florence; and the Cathedral's illuminated choir books.
