Thanks to a stipend from his patron, the Landgrave Moritz von Hessen-Kassel, Schutz was able to pursue a three-year period of study under Giovanni Gabrieli in Venice from 1609 to 1612, which he concluded with the publication in 1611 of the madrigal collection Il Primo Libro de Madrigali. Already in this, his Opus primus, Schutz emerged as an outstanding composer: In their musical quality, the 18 five-part madrigals exceed much that was still being composed in the traditional madrigal style at the beginnning of the 17th century.

The Three American Madrigals includes settings of Frost, Whitman and Teasdale. Frostâ??s poem Bond and Free is another slow lyrical setting with contrasting tonalities accentuating the two halves of the poem. Likewise, the setting of Whitmanâ??s Tears explores various diatonic modes while also employing constantly changing meters, thus yielding a feeling of fluidity. A setting of Sara Teasdaleâ??s I Love You closes the cycle. The four symmetrical stanzas of the poem are exaggerated with chromaticâ??almost barbershop-styleâ??harmonies in close spacing.SATB Chorus, a cappella Duration: 15 ' Composed: 2014 Published by: Distributed Composer Minimum order quantity: 8 copies.

Hungarian.
Thomas Morley (1557/58-1602) was a contemporary of Shakespeare's, a great master of the English Renaissance, and the first significant English composer of madrigals. One favourite work by him in the choral repertoire is the short four-part madrigal Now is the Gentle Season, which we publish here in a Hungarian translation by László Lukin.
