Scores

New edition of motets, edited by Peter Bergquist.

Interesting review: John Milsom. “Absorbing Lassus.” Early Music, May 2005, 305-14. Let’s all read and discuss, each bringing a volume of the motets. Milsom has an interesting discussion of how the new edition allows a revision of Lowinsky’s key critical essay of 1935-37 (auf deutsch) of the 1^st printed volume of motets, (Il primo libro…1556, Antwerp). The Lowinsky essay is now available in English in Lowinsky’s Music in the Culture of the Renaissance. Chicago, *1989. pp. 385-431. ML 160 L83 1989

Of passing interest

*Colin Slim. “A composition by Orlando de Lassus in a Vanitas painting attributed to Sébastien Stoskopff.” Musique, Images, Instruments: Revue française d’organologie et d’iconographie musicale, 5 (2003), 49-58. ML 85 M97 no. 5. The painter (Protestant) is apparently a user of the print publications of Lassus.

Kate van Orden. “Lasso as print entrepreneur.” Music and the Cultures of Print, 2000. ML 112 M84 2000. Milsom suggests that Lasso wrote some of his about 500 motets for publication rather than liturgical use.
