Thank you so much for the translation, that's very cool.

civileso, do you have everything???

[bubblykings]

Madrigal???? I thought Caccini wrote monody...like in his Le nuove musiche...

[civileso]

It is a madrigal, yes. It's not me who says it, but Caccini himself in his book.

[blaaarrrgghh]

Is this from an opera by Caccini (Euridice?) or was it a single work in itself?

[civileso]

This is a madrigal from Caccini's Le Nuove Musiche collection.

very beautiful clip.

not all the paintings are from caccini's era, are they?

is it from musical benquet ?

[civileso]

Yes, it is from the musicall banquet.. Both from Dowland's and from Scholl's:)) and no, the paintings are not all from that era..I just used the cncept of tragic love and grieving lover.. These are "mostly" not all, medieval lovers like Abelard and Heloise, Romeo and Juliette (Shakespeare only wrote the play based on a medieval story), etc..

[civileso]

But there is also Dido's death scene (last clip) which is waaay before middle ages, the Ancient Greek.. So, I just used the concept and tried to pick the ones that would convey the idea.
