  • The sacred motet Nigra Sum of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina from his collection Motettorum liber quartus ex Canticis canticorum (The fourth book of Motets from the Song of songs). Live HD video from the Voices of Music Great Artists Concert, October, 2012. Featuring Bruce Dickey, cornetto; Elisabeth Reed, baroque cello and Hanneke van Proosdij, organ. Temperament: quarter comma meantone at A=466 Hz.
    Palestrina's fourth book contains a number of works that draw on the style of the Italian Madrigal, but the slow, homophonic chords of Nigra Sum, leavened suspensions and the old-fashioned technique of parallel fourths in the upper voices, are reminiscent not of the madrigal but of the finest renaissance motets from the mid-sixteenth century.
    Bruce Dickey on improvisation:
    Improvisation was the means by which musicians, both singers and instrumentalists, learned their craft and displayed their skill. Mostly these were improvisations on existing material--motets, madrigals and chansons. Many such elaborations were written down as examples for students and colleagues, and they attest to an extraordinary level of technical skill and creativity. One cornettist, Luigi Zenobi, left us a daunting description of all the things a singer or instrumentalist needed to be able to do when improvising on an existing piece. The improvisation should display all kinds of movement, speeding up and slowing down, leaping and moving by step, creating dissonance where the composer did not write it, creating echo effects of various kinds, and following one style in sacred and another in secular music. He even suggests that one style should be used during the daytime and another at night! My version of Palestrina's motet Nigra sum is inspired by Zenobi, but makes no claim to attain the improvisatory level he describes.

    The Cornetto is so expressive, like a human voice. Its hard to understand how it fell out of use when you hear something as exquisite as this performance! It absorbs you in beauty and history at the same time. A very difficult instrument to play, he makes it seem effortless. Breathtaking post!

      Plague took out all of the masters of the instrument at once. It’s a very difficult instrument, and the tradition wasn’t passed on. Ambitious young musicians in this vein pursued the violin.

    I wish i could remember who said it: when I was a music major in college, I think I remember someone from the Ranaissance or early Baroque periods calling the cornetto's sound "a ray of sunlight piercing the darkness," and this performance by Bruce Dickey proves that!

      Very interesting instrument indeed. In Nürnberg (Nuremberg) in the Germanic National Museum there are - among many other often very old historical music instruments some Zinks, it is so nice to watch the old instruments imagining they were played by persons with big wigs. Here are some Zinks from there: ua-cam.com/video/ZD26fHhQffM/v-deo.html

    Bruce Dickey est un cornettiste américain. Il est considéré comme le doyen de la génération moderne de cornettistes, dont beaucoup étaient ses étudiants à la Schola Cantorum Basiliensis et à l'Institut de musique ancienne de l'Université de l'Indiana , ou des étudiants de ses étudiants. [1] En 1987, il fonde l'ensemble Concerto Palatino avec le tromboniste baroque néerlandais Charles Toet, d'après le nom du Concerto Palatino della Signoria di Bologna de San Petronio à huit hommes , célèbre de 1530 à 1800. [2] Il est marié à la chanteuse et chef d'orchestre américaine Candace Smith, avec qui il fonde les éditions Artemisia, spécialisées dans l'édition d'éditions de musique sacrée italienne du XVIIe siècle.
    Il a fréquenté l'école de musique de l'Université de l'Indiana .
