16th century Italian Madrigal

from Between the Barlines

Welcome back to Between the Barlines! I am your host, Dr. Maeve Berry, and I am thrilled that you are here today with me to learn more about the 16th century Italian madrigal! We’ve learned so much already this season -- it really seems like it has flown by! If you haven’t checked out the earlier episodes of the season or even season 1, I suggest you do so, so that you can see the progression of music take off! Today’s topic, the Italian madrigal, would not have come to fruition had it not been for the composers, techniques, and political and socio economic challenges that had come before.
