Cançoner del Duc de Calàbria
(from Uppsala)
Music in Valencia in the 15th and 16th centuries. “Villancicos de diversos autores, a dos, y a tres, y a quatro, y a cinco bozes, agora nuevamente corregidos…” (Venezia, 1556) is the name by which the Duke of Calabria’ Songbook (or Songbook of Uppsala) was printed in Venice in 1556. The selection of carols that this album contains is grouped under three themes: popular and pastoral carols, Christmas carols and amatory carols.
