The Three Fountains: Music for Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio
The lyrical art of Trecento composers was inspired by the poets known as Italy’s Three Fountains: Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio. Musicians such as Gherardello da Firenze, Jacopo da Bologna, and Francesco Landini excelled in setting the poetry of these masters in a graceful and melodic style that was different from the music of their contemporaries. Virtuoso instrumental music with fiddles, harp, lute, citole, and bagpipes accompanies the song.
