Product Description

Virgilio Mazzocchi (1597-1646) - Nigra sum sed formosa

Una delle versioni meno note del brano, in forma di mottetto, preso dal Cantico dei Cantici, "Nigra sum sed formosa", che pare aver dato origini a molte rappresentazioni iconografiche della "Madonna Nera" che si trovano in molte culture cattoliche in tutto il mondo, dall'Italia all'Asia, dall'Africa all'America Latina.
In questo caso il mottetto a 4 voci è di Virgilio Mazzocchi, maestro di cappella a Roma nella prima metà del '600.

A "Nigra sum sed formosa" 4-voices motet by Virgilio Mazzocchi, composer and chapel master in Rome in the first half of the 17th century. The text is taken from the Book of Solomon and it's thought to have given origin to many representations of the "Black Virgin" in many catholic traditions all around the world.

Transcription by Guido Menestrina, available in modern clefs.
