Description
World première: 's-Hertogenbosch, December 16, 2007
Libro de glosas is based on the Trattado de glosas by Diego Ortiz (1510 – ca. 1570). The "intertextuality" between different materials and musical techniques and processes of the 16th century was one of my main interests when I wrote this piece for the wonderful sound and quality of the Calefax ensemble. The intertextual relationships are as follows: Recercada I is based on the first chords of the chanson "Doulce memoire" by Pierre Sandrin. It is also used in Trattado de glosas. Recercada II is based on the incipit of the madrigal "O felici occhi miei" by Jacques Arcadelt. It is also used in Trattado de glosas. Recercada III is based on the ostinato "Passamezzo antico." It is also used in Trattado de glosas. Recercada IV is freely based on the tenor "La Spagna." It is also used in Trattado de glosas. Batalla(V) is a free composition in form of a "battaglia" and is based on some ostinati of Spanish origin as well as on an anonymous theme from the 16th century. There are also some bars of a batalla by Joseph Ximénez (18th century).
