Product Description
Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Giovanni Pierluigi Da Palestrina, Gregorio Allegri, Giovanni Animuccia, Emilio De' Cavalieri, Stefano Landi, Giovanni de Macque, Giovanni Francesco Anerio, Felice Anerio, Rinaldo Del Mel, Ruggiero Giovanelli, Paolo Quagliati, Annibale Stabile, Marc'antonio Ingegneri, Ruggiero Giovannelli, Francesco Soriano, Annibale Zoilo, Giovanni Maria Nanino, Giovanni Bernardino Nanino, Antonio Cifra, Giovanni Dragoni, Paolo Bellasio, Domenico Allegri. Excerpt:Annibale Stabile (c.1535 April 1595) was an Italian composer of the Renaissance . He was a member of the Roman School of composition, and probably was a pupil of Palestrina . He was active mainly at Rome but moved briefly to Kraków , Poland at the end of his life. Life Records of his early life are inexact, but he was probably born in Naples , and was likely a boy singer at St. John Lateran in 1544 and 1545. An "Annibale contralto" is also listed at the same church in 1555 and 1556; since it is unlikely that a twenty-year-old would have been listed as a contralto , this may have been a different person; alternatively it has been proposed that Annibale was born in the mid 1540s. Stabile himself mentioned that he studied with Palestrina, who was maestro di cappella at St. John Lateran in 1555 and 1556. Stabile became maestro di cappella at St. John Lateran in 1575, and retained that position until 1578, at which time he moved on to a similar position at the Collegio Germanico . Since Giovanni Dragoni also held the position of maestro di cappella at St. John Lateran, beginning in 1576, the two must have shared the post for two years. In 1582 Stabile was ordained a priest ; and in 1590 he changed jobs again, this time becoming maestro di cappella at Santa Maria Maggiore , where he was employed from 1591 to 1594. He went to Poland in early... ... Read more

Extrait : Un castrat est un chanteur de sexe masculin ayant subi la castration avant sa puberté, dans le but de conserver le registre aigu de sa voix enfantine, tout en bénéficiant du volume sonore produit par la capacité thoracique d'un adulte. Le phénomène des castrats apparaît dans la deuxième moitié du siècle en Occident, se développe principalement en Italie et disparaît entre la fin du et le début du siècle. On dit que les meilleurs castrats pouvaient rivaliser en puissance, technique et hauteur avec une petite trompette. Le mot désigne également le type de voix obtenu au moyen de cette opération. Les premiers chanteurs castrés apparaissent dans l'Empire byzantin. En Occident, les premiers castrats connus chantent dans la chapelle du duc de Ferrare à la fin des années 1550 ; le duc évoque le recours aux castrats comme s'agissant d'un phénomène classique. À la même époque, Guillaume de Gonzague, troisième duc de Mantoue, emploie dans sa chapelle personnelle des « petits chanteurs français » (« cantoretti francesi »), qui sont peut-être des castrats. Le premier castrat, d'origine espagnole, entre dès 1582 dans les effectifs du chœur de la chapelle Sixtine, c'est-à-dire la chapelle privée du pape, qui avait déjà recruté des falsettistes espagnols auparavant. Cette importance des Espagnols parmi les...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
