It would be the new madrigal that emerged after 1530 as the successful model from the complex situation of poetic and musical tendencies, consolidated or being born, which was being created in the third decade of the 16th century: the musical symbol of an era that some indicate as the 'most cultivated’. In the Veneto area, long-standing traditional linguistic settlements had existed where music was popular, there was a ceaseless quest for a poetic muse perhaps more humble in appearance, but full of penetrating scents of the land, always open to influences, parodies, transformations and verbal wit. The disc is a collection of this music hanging in the balance between folk and cultured Renaissance music.
