Innocenzio Alberti

Innocenzio Alberti did not publish much music. His Pavanne and Galliard set in the Lumley manuscript, British Library R. App. 74, f. 41 rev, are the only known instrumental pieces. His madrigals appear in three of his own books and at least one collection.

I was not able to find any transcription of the Pavanne and Galliard online. They are included in the Musica Britannica volume XLIV Elizabethan Consort Music I by Paul Doe.

My setting is based on the manuscript images and compared to the Doe version.

“John Lumley’s collection was one of the largest of the Elizabethan libraries. It comprised the collection of Lumley’s father-in-law, Henry Fitzalan (b. 1512, d. 1580), 19th Earl of Arundel, Chamberlain to Henry VIII and Edward VI and Lord High Stuart to Mary I. Arundel’s collection was composed mainly of manuscripts acquired during the dissolution of monasteries. It was augmented significantly by the library of Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury. Cranmer’s manuscripts (c. 100 volumes), which were confiscated by the Crown after the accession of the Catholic Queen Mary Tudor, granted to the Earl, and housed in his residence at Nonsuch. These books typically bear the archbishop’s signature, ‘Thomas Cantuarensis’, written in black ink on their front pages.

In 1557, after the death of Arundel’s only son, Lumley moved to Nonsuch Palace. At that point Lumley’s own collection merged with that of his father-in-law’s and the names of both collectors were added into the volumes. At least 70 books and manuscripts also bear the name of Humphrey Lloyd (d. 1568), a physician whom Arundel brought from Oxford following his brief appointment as the Chancellor of the University. Lloyd advised Lumley on the composition of his library and married his sister. His manuscripts passed to Lumley after his death.” The British Library Catalogue of Illuminated Manuscripts (bl.uk)

Dallas Public Library July 9th 4:30pm

The Dallas Public Library is planning a Shakespeare event on July 9th. Vicki and I will present a program on “Popular Music in the age of Shakespeare” at 4:30pm.

The great consort music from the court of Elizabeth Tudor is well known, but what did common people sing or hear? Tallis and Byrd wrote music for choirs, Dowland for the lute, and Holbourne for viols, but they all wrote for professional musicians. Common folk sang broadside ballads or danced to simple bransles (pronounced brawls).

This presentation will discuss ballads that are mentioned in Shakespeare plays, and dances that were popular outside to the court. The primary source for dances is Arbeau’s Orchesography. It describes dance steps and gives the melody. Few dances from this time had any harmony included. The best source for songs in the plays is Duffin’s Shakespeare’s Songbook.

We will perform the dances and ballads, and describe the instruments that would have been used then.

Mon Dieu, la belle entrée Du grand roy des François

Mon Dieu, la belle entrée

Sung to the tune of: Mon Dieu, la belle entrée du grand Roy des François

 Mon Dieu, la belle entrée of the Ansteorran King,  
The nobles rise to bow while the people stand and sing.
The Queen in all her glory, inspiring chivalry,
Joins in our story of nobility.
 
The grandeur of the court is a marvel to behold.
The ladies crowned with jewels, and the Knights all chained in Gold.
Counselors in their red hats lined with ermine like their gown,
Wear chains of office that show great renown.
 
The honored artisans, with their laurel wreath displayed,
Enhance the realm’s beauty, as do Masters with the blade.
But the King that leads us all is the symbol of our fame,
So let us call our kingdom’s glorious name.
 
Mon Dieu, la belle entrée of the Ansteorran King,
The nobles rise to bow and the people stand to sing.
The Queen in all her glory, inspiring chivalry,
Joins in our story of nobility.

The written music can be found here.
