ISBN10: 0198162715, ISBN13: 9780198162711, [publisher: Oxford University Press] Hardcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Salamone Rossi (c.1570-c.1628) has earned a special place in music history as the earliest outstanding Jewish composer to work in the European art music tradition-no others of his calibre are to be found until the 19th century. In his life and works, Rossi moved between two worlds: the court and the Jewish community in late Renaissance Mantua. His publications include madrigals set to verses of the most fashionable poets of the time, dances, sinfonias, brillianttrio sonatas, and a collection of Hebrew songs (`The Songs of Solomon'), the first of its kind and, to this day, unique in the history of sacred music. Given the composer's unusual role as a mediator between two cultures, his life and works carry serious implications for an understanding of both theEuropean and the Jewish musical and literary traditions in an era that stands on the threshold of the modern world.
