Overview

This brief yet elegant score presents two pieces, "Alkony" (Twilight) and "Tavasz" (Spring), by the celebrated late Renaissance Italian madrigalist, Luca Marenzio (1553–1599). Marenzio is considered one of the most expressive composers of his time, known for his masterful use of madrigalisms (word-painting) and refined polyphony.

These works are arranged for three-part Upper Voices (I, II, III), making them ideally suited for women's or children's choirs, or high school ensembles. The original Italian madrigal (or similar form) is set here with beautiful Hungarian lyrics provided by the renowned musicologist and folk song collector, Dr. György Kerényi. With an easy/intermediate difficulty rating (Grade 2) and a short duration, this single-sheet publication is perfect for introducing young singers to the grace and lyrical subtlety of the Italian Renaissance choral style in an accessible language.

Áttekintés (Hungarian)

Ez a rövid, de elegáns kotta két darabot, az "Alkony"-t és a "Tavasz"-t tartalmazza a híres késő reneszánsz olasz madrigálírótól, Luca Marenzio-tól (1553–1599). Marenziót korának egyik legkifejezőbb zeneszerzőjének tartják, aki a madrigalizmus (szövegfestés) mesteri használatáról és a kifinomult polifóniáról volt ismert.

Ezek a művek három szólamban, egyneműkarra (I, II, III) vannak hangszerelve, így ideálisak női, gyermek- vagy középiskolai kórusok számára. Az eredeti olasz madrigált (vagy hasonló formát) itt magyar szöveggel énekelhetjük, amelyet a neves zenetudós és népdalgyűjtő, Dr. György Kerényi készített. Könnyű/középhaladó nehézségi fokozatával (2. fokozat) és rövid terjedelmével ez az egyetlen lapos kiadvány tökéletes arra, hogy a fiatal énekeseket megismertesse az olasz reneszánsz kórusstílus kegyelmével és lírai finomságával, hozzáférhető nyelven.

Interesting Facts

  • Luca Marenzio and Madrigalism: Marenzio was a specialist in the Italian Madrigal, particularly famous for his "madrigalisms"—musical devices that graphically depict the meaning of the words, such as a high note for "sky" or a fast passage for "running." His influence shaped European music into the early Baroque era.
  • Text and Music: While the original Italian title is not given, the Hungarian titles Alkony (Twilight) and Tavasz (Spring) suggest pieces rich in nature imagery, a common theme in Renaissance madrigals.
  • Dr. György Kerényi: Kerényi's work in translation and editing was crucial in the mid-20th century for making historical vocal music available and singable for Hungarian choirs, a core part of the Editio Musica Budapest legacy.
