传记
Giovanni Ghizzolo (Brescia ca. 1580–Novara ca. 1625) was a franciscan monk, composer of motets and madrigals. From 1613 he was maestro di cappella successively at Correggio, Ravenna, Padua, and ended his life in Novara.[1]
He published eleven prints of sacred music, both in concertato and "a cappella" style, and nine of secular music - three books of polyphonic madrigals for 5 and 6 voices and six (one lost) of madrigals, arias and canzonette for 1-2-3 voices from 1608 till 1623. Some of his sacred music collections have been reprinted several times, until 1640.[2]
His Gioco della cieca, contained in Book 1 of Madrigals, takes 123 verses from Il pastor fido of Giovanni Battista Guarini (Act III, Scene 2), also set by Gastoldi and others, to make a theatrical madrigal-drama.
