Se tu mami -- Most of the songs and arias included in this volume have been favorites with singers for many years. However, until now, only selected pieces have been available with stylistically-appropriate accompaniments, replacing the Romantic, late-19th-century legacy of Alessandro Parisotti. In going back where possible to early manuscripts and editions, I have tried to produce accompaniments that the composers of these pieces might have found acceptable. In general I have not doubled the voice parts at pitch, since singers often find this inhibiting. I have not introduced any editorial dynamics, since singers until the mid-18th century were in the habit of applying their own, based on the words they were singing. Todays singers should do the same -- there is no reason to suppose that singers in the 21st century are less imaginative and intelligent. Neither have I introduced editorial phrasing, pedalling, fingering or tempo markings, nor suggested any ornamentation for the vocal lines. This does not mean that singers should forego ornamentation. but I have preferred to leave this to the singers own taste. Parisottis volumes were notably weighted in favor of the 18th century at the expense of the 17th. I have redressed the balance by introducing five pieces from the early 17th century. I have also taken the opportunity to include a more extended version of Monteverdis famous Lamento dArianna. -- Roger Nichols, Editor. taken from the liner notes of this edition. Amarilli, mia bella. Lasciatemi morire. Lamento d'Arianna. Valli profonde. Torna il sereno Zefiro. Vittoria, Mio Core. L'amante bugiardo. Che Fiero Costume. Tu lo sai. Gia Il Sole Dal Gange. O Cessate Di Piagarmi. Sento Nel Core. Le Violette. Se Florinda E Fedele. Pur Dicesti, O Bocca Bella. Padre, addio. Non Posso Disperar. Per La Gloria D'Adorarvi. Sebben, crudele. Alma del core. Come raggio del sol.
