Palestrina
's Guando dal terzo
cielois the final
composition in a
collection of madrigals
entitled Il trionfo di
Dori. Each madrigal is
scored for six voices and
each ends with the text
Viva la bella Dori (Long
live fair Dori). This
late sixteenth-century
collection of madrigals
enjoyed great success and
was the model of the
famous English collection
of madrigals entitled,
The Triumphes of Oriana.
The GIA Historical Music
Series edited by Dennis
Shrock, presents
repertoire suitable for
performance by public
school, college and
university, church, and
community ensembles, with
the purpose of making
available to
today’s conductors
lesser-known and
previously
difficult-to-procure
historical masterpieces.
The music, drawn from the
Renaissance through the
Romantic eras, is in
performance editions
based on the most current
and rigorous scholarly
research. The musical
scores reflect original
intent of notation, with
all editorial markings
and emendations clearly
identified as such. In
addition, preface
material accompanying the
music contains literal
translations of foreign
language texts and
information regarding the
lives of the composers,
genres, and relevant
performance practices.
