Claudio Monteverdi: Dolcissimo uscignolo (1638) with Synthesizer V

This short madrigal by Claudio Monteverdi consists of a soprano soloist alternating with a chorus of 5 homophonic male voice parts plus basso continuo accompaniment. It compares a gallant lover to a nightingale seeking his beloved. The cavalier gentleman expresses envy for a nightingale's simplicity and innocence in matters of love. The original MIDI file was downloaded from CPDL.org and its author is Gerd Eichler. I added the Italian lyrics using the Synthesizer V software with Solaria (for the soprano) and Kevin (for the males voices). I also added the accompaniment of a chitarrone and bass viol in the obligatory 6th part using the iPhone app Music Studio 2. Reverb and echo were added using Audacity v.3.75 Text: Dolcissimo uscignolo, (Sweetest nightingale) tu chiami la tua cara compagnia (you call to your dear companion) cantando: «Vieni, vieni, anima mia». (singing "come, come my soulmate") A me canto non vale, (To me a song is no value) e non ho come tu da volar ale. (and I have not wings like you to fly) O felice augelletto, (O happy little bird) come nel tuo diletto (how for your pleasure) ti ricompensa ben l'alma natura: (kind nature compensates you well) se ti negò saper, ti diè ventura.
