Synopsis Music and Musicians in Renaissance Rome and Other Courts by : Richard Sherr
First published in 1999, the essays that follow have been selected from the author’s writings to explore musical institutions in 15th and 16th century Italy with a detailed focus on the papal choir, but with additional comments on Mantua (Mantova), Florence and France. Much of the material which formed the basis of those essays was largely drawn from archives. Richard Sherr explores diverse areas including the Medici coat of arms in a motet for Leo X, performance practice in the papal chapel during the 16th century, the publications of Guglielmo Gonzaga, Lorenzo de’ Medici as a patron of music and homosexuality in late sixteenth-century Italy.

Synopsis Late Renaissance Music at the Hapsburg Court by : C. P. Comberiati
First Published in 1987. This study presents the background for the sacred musical patronage at the court, with specific reference to the polyphonic settings of the Mass Ordinary - during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II (1576-1612). One function of the present work is to collect the various relevant data concerning the chapel and the Mass, and to demonstrate basic relationships at the court. This study approaches the chapel of Rudolf II through archival research, musical sources, and comparing the compositional process of its composers. The goal is a better understanding of the sacred musical practice at the chapel.

Synopsis Music at the Court of Mantua, 1450-1540 by : William F. Prizer
Summary: The court of Mantua, in northern Italy, was one of the most important centers of Italian music from the late fifteenth through the early seventeenth centuries, from the rise of the first written secular music of the Italian Renaissance through the time of Claudio Monteverdi. Based on newly uncovered documents, this collection of essays focuses on the beginnings of an active musical life there under the Marchesa Isabella d'Este (1474-1539) and her husband the Marchese Francesco Gonzaga (1466-1519). It considers the various genres of music at court-vocal, instrumental, sacred and seculartheir sources, the musicians at court, and the patronage of music by the ruling family. Particular emphasis is given to the frottola, the chief secular song of northern Italy, and to Isabella herself as important patron and avid performer.

Synopsis Music in Renaissance Lyons by : Frank Dobbins
The first comprehensive study of musical life in Lyons at a time when the city was a leading European commercial and cultural center, this book surveys the vast repertoire of music copied and published, relating it to social, political, economic, intellectual, and religious life. The great wealth of the city's literature is scrutinized for references which provide testimony to the musical attitudes and activities of resident or visiting patrons and amateurs. Information on the composers who lived or worked in Lyons is gleaned from contemporary records, dedications, and correspondence as well as from their musical output. The masses, motets, chansons, madrigals, psalms, and instrumental music for church, state, and citizen are reviewed, reflecting changes in form and style that occur in response to the requirements of visiting courts of an increasingly demanding bourgeoisie, led by affluent Italian patricians and eventually a more intrusive Protestant community.

Synopsis Papal Music and Musicians in Late Medieval and Renaissance Rome by : Richard Sherr
This book collects twelve of the papers given at a conference held at the Library of Congress, Washington D.C., on 1-3 April 1993, in conjunction with the exhibition `Rome Reborn: The Vatican Library and Renaissance Culture'. A group of distinguished scholars considered music in medieval and Renaissance Rome. The volume presents a series of wide-ranging and original treatments of music written for and performed in the papal court from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century. New discoveries are offered which force a radical reevaluation of the Italian papal court as a musical centre during the Great Schism. A series of motets for various popes are subject to close analysis. New interpretations and information are offered concerning the repertory of the papal chapel in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the institutional life of the papal singers, and the individual biographies of singers and composers. Thought-provoking, even controversial, evaluations of the music of composers connected with, or thought to be connected with, Rome and the papal court, such as Ninot le Petit, Josquin, and Palestrina round out the volume.
