Talk:Chi chi li chi (Orlando di Lasso)

The composer of his Madrigal is Orlando di Lasso!!!

Actually, Gabrieli made his own arrangement of the work in his Il primo libro de madrigali a sei voci (1574). Lasso's piece is itself an arrangement of an anonymous setting in 3 voices (Einstein ascribes it to da Nola). It's worth noting that Gabrieli's publication predates Lasso's by 7 years, too (1574 vs 1581 for the Lasso print). Agarvin (talk) 22:08, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

The two pieces are very very similar (due, as Agarvin said, to the fact that they are both based on the same 3-voice piece, though it is also possible that one of the two composers re-arranged the arrangement of the other), but they are definitely distinct works. I'm working on a transcription of Gabrieli's version now, and will re-instate that page once it's finished. Wboyle (talk) 03:00, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Belated update: finally got around to finishing the transcription. I've repopulated the Gabrieli page (removing the redirect), and moved Steven Guy's transcription to its proper location. See the link here. ~ Wboyle (talk) 23:21, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
