Abstract
Although a number of motet, madrigal and lute collections supported by local Milanese patrons were printed in Milan and Venice during the first half of the sixteenth century, modern scholars continue to regard this period in Milanese history as fallow in musical activity. This phenomenon has resulted from a lack of documentary evidence regarding both the activities of the musicians who contributed to these collections and the musical institutions with which these musicians and their patrons were associated. While several studies on music at the Duomo of Milan during the first half of the sixteenth century do esixt, Guglielmo Barblan's poineering study remains the only comprehensive survey of civic and courtly music of the period, and it focuses primarily spon instrumental musicians, thus leaving largely unanswered the questions of where and by whom the aforementioned Milanese motests and madrigals were performed.
