Aquilino Coppini was a musicist who, at the service of Cardinal Federico Borromeo, especialized in creating sacred ''contrafacta'' of secular madrigals. His contrafacta are of interest for their concentration on madrigals by [[Monteverdi]] (especially the third, fourth and fifth books) and for his treatment of the poetic text. Rather than simply replacing the original text with a liturgical one, he ‘spiritualized’ then through a careful translation which reproduces the phonemes, accents and rhythms of the secular text.
