Matona Mia Cara

Orlando di Lasso's tuneful villanelle is set here for TBB voices, with Italian text and English subtext. Carefully edited, it is shorter in duration than the original SATB score and includes an optional piano accompaniment. Written in a style that is rustic and light, with energized syllables of "dire, dire, don, don, don," this is an excellent feature for developing male voices!
