Abstract

Through the recent identification of the model for a contrafactum, a composition by Domenico Micheli dedicated to Tarquinia Molza has been discovered. This has turned out to be of earlier date than those dedicated to her by other composers. The incompletely preserved madrigal can be partially reconstructed with the aid of the parts belonging to the contrafactum and opens up new research perspectives on Molza and Micheli as well as on the process of retextualization carried out by Geronimo Cavaglieri, author of the new text.
