Summary:Nor did the first publication display any listed privilegio on the title page that announced the owner (under some regimes, at any rate) possessed a sole license to issue the music being published. First is the number of musicians, here reduced to six in all: a soprano, countertenor, three tenors, and a bass. There's an excellent in-depth article here from Jessie Ann Owens, Professor Emeritus of UC, Davis, which covers a range of interesting esoterica on Rore's first madrigal book, and an exceptional, lengthy essay by Scott Metcalfe on performing pitch, performance style, clefs and transposition, and voice types and scoring.
