| description | Along sixteenth-century, the noble elites took as their model of behaviour the gentiluomo described by Baldassare de Castiglione in his Cortegiano. According to this ideal, music played an essential role in the education of princes and courtiers. The humanist sovereign had to combine the double side of performer and patron. At the same time and under this prism, woman’s role in the Italian Courts of Mantua and Ferrara acquired a special relevance in two areas: on the one hand, in the intense musical patronage exercised by the princesses of the ruling families and, on the other hand, in the importance of noblewomen and professionals as performers. All this made it possible to develop a highly refined and extremely virtuous singing style, depicted on Este’s Court concerto delle dame found in Ferrara in late sixteenth-century. |
