Excellente! And to think I found this CD for six bucks!

[musicalmommymichelle]

This composition reminds me so much of Monteverdi's "Beatus vir"?! Which came first, anyone know?

[TwistedSoprano]

I think the Beatus did. Either way, Monteverdi plagiarized himself!

[debbyplayer]

Chiome d'oro wascomposed before Beatus vir. Converting madrigals into sacred music was a common procedure for that time.

[drtmuir]

Same violin ritornello. Monteverdi "cut and pasted" a lot between sacred and secular compositions. Another- I remember off the top of my head -- he used bits of "Chi vol haver felice" and "Dolcissomo uscignuolo" in the Confitebor alla francesa.

[GoldenAwakening]

I love their Italian, such cute voices together!

Puoi "amare il loro italiano", ma oggettivamente la pronuncia è molto approssimata.
