Born in Bologna, Italy, Adriano Banchieri studied composition and organ and was a member of the Olivetan Order where he lived and worked in its Monasteries. As a founder of the Academia Dei Floridi, his writings on Theory, Figured Bass and Vocal Ornamentation are considered important in early Baroque Music. As an Associate of Monteverdi, Banchieri composed masses, psalm settings, motets, theater works and madrigals.

Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) composed this madrigal in 1605. It appears in the fifth of his eight books of madrigals and is one of his most famous. Cruda Amarilli are the first words in a soliloquy from the play Il pastor fido, which was published in Venice in 1589 by the dramatic poet Battista Guarini (1538-1612). The soliloquy translates as follows: Cruel Amaryllis, who with your name to love, alas, bitterly you teach. Amaryllis, more than the white privetpure, and more beautiful, but deafer than the deaf asp, and fiercer and more elusive. Since telling offended you, I shall die in silence. Barry Toombs' elegant brass quintet arrangement of Monteverdi's madrigal setting of Cruda Amarilli successfully imitates the fluid quality of the human voice.
