Title and DescriptionScoreMidiTranslation
Baciai per aver vita (SS A/T TB)
A setting of a rather naughty Guarini text about the ravishing effects of a kiss, by a Modenese pupil of Orazio Vecchi. (Much the same text was set by Gastoldi, Quarto libro a 5 (1602); there are also settings by Aleotti and PF Guerini, qq.v.). The piece has been transposed down a fourth; a version at the original pitch is also available.

Felicissimo Tirsi (SS A/T A/T B)
A pastoral-themed madrigal extolling love's delights -- or, at any rate, wishing for them.
