Toelichting:
The underlying collection of madrigals was dedicated to Don Antonio Londonio, a magistrate of the Secret Council of the Catholic King of the State of Milan. It was published in 1570, when she was still rather young.
Casulana’s style is moderately contrapuntal and chromatic, reminiscent of some of the early work by Marenzio as well as many madrigals by Philippe De Monte, but avoids the extreme experimentation of the Ferrara school composers such as Luzzaschi and Gesualdo. Her melodic lines are singable and carefully attentive to the text. Other composers of the time, such as Philippe De Monte, thought highly of her; that Lassus conducted a work of hers at a wedding in Bavaria suggests that he also was impressed with her ability.
A total of 66 madrigals by Casulana have survived. The madrigals are highly homophonic and not very demanding, but very pleasant to sing and to hear.
