There is no way that Striggio could have specified 'theorbo' as one of the doubles in his motet because it wasn't invented yet. 64.229.227.213 20:46, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was a bass lute. I fixed it; thanks. Antandrus (talk) 02:39, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Thread to follow[edit]

The commentators on the Proms performance of the Ecco sì beato giorno mass suggest Moroney's opinion of his performance arrangement of the 42 part-book scores (40 vocal, 2 organs, found in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France) was conservative: we may perhaps expect a more florid expression in due course. The Proms performance alternated a fairly richly ornamented polyphony with plainchant parodies and introits: the weakness if any tended to be the abruptness of the end of each setting, suggesting the scores may be the basis for greater elaboration, particularly in the 60-part Agnus Dei, which may benefit from greater separation of the lines. 60 parts could indeed be excessive, as they tended to reduce each part to a line in a 4-part chord structure which could be fruitfully broken out. The performance particularly benefitted from the use of a contra-bass sackbutt, giving body to the continuo role of the bass vocalists: without it (and there's only one in the world at the moment) the bottom may prove particularly weak in performance, showing that this density of singers requires a missing basso profundissimo foundation as well as stable sopranini.Jel 23:26, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
