About Dolci beate stille
From the heart of the Italian Renaissance, Marcantonio Tornioli offers Dolci beate stille, a sacred madrigal for treble voices (SSB). The text, a devotional Italian poem, speaks of sweet, blessed drops of precious humour, addressing the eyes as cherished pupils. The singer pledges their heart, hoping to offer humble and devout first fruits and the soul in their final sigh. This intimate setting would be well-suited for contemplative moments, perhaps during a devotional service or as a prayerful offering within a concert program. The beauty of the text and its sensitive musical setting make this a poignant choice for a treble choir seeking expressive repertoire.
