Italian composer. He served Cardinal Luigi d'Este and others in Rome, and was invited to the courts of Ferrara, Mantua, Florence, and other cities, and rarely left Italy during his life. Along with Gesualdo and Monteverdi, he is one of the greatest composers of late madrigals (polyphonic songs), and his many madrigals for four, five, and six voices are based on well-balanced polyphonic writing and show a noble and elegant character. He also wrote many secular vocal pieces for three voices, villanelle (meaning "country song"), and left behind several works in the fields of religious madrigals and motets.

イタリアの作曲家。ローマで枢機卿(すうききょう)ルイジ・デステらに仕えたほか、フェッラーラ、マントバ、フィレンツェなどの宮廷にも招かれるなど、生涯ほとんどイタリアを出ることはなかった。ジェズアルドやモンテベルディとともに、後期マドリガーレ(多声歌曲)の最大の作曲家の1人であり、その4、5、6声による多数のマドリガーレは、均整のとれたポリフォニー書法を基礎とし、気品あふれた格調高い性格を示している。また三声の世俗声楽曲ビラネッラ(「田舎(いなか)歌」の意)も多数書いたほか、宗教的マドリガーレやモテトゥスの分野でもいくつかの作品を残している。 [今谷和徳] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
