CAVALIERE, EMILIO DEL

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 563 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CAVALIERE, EMILIO DEL , 16th-
century
  Italian musical composer, was born in Rome about 1550 of a noble family. He held a post at the
court
  of Ferdinand I. of Tuscany from 1588 to 1597, and during his residence at Florence was on terms of intimacy with J. Peri, O. Rinuccini, G.
Caccini
  and the rest of the Barth circle. In 1597 he returned to Rome, and became connected with the
Congregation
  of the Oratory founded by St Philip
Neri
 . Here in 1600 was performed Cavaliere's contribution to the musical reformation initiated by his circle of friends in FlorenceLa Rappresentazione di Anima e di Corp, a sacred drama, which is regarded as the first example of what is now called oratorio. It is generally supposed that he was no longer living when the
work
  was performed, but some authorities assign 16o2 as the date of his death.
Cavaliere's style is more facile than that of Peri and
Caccini
 , but he is inferior to them in
depth
  of musical expression. He is, however, important as being the first to apply the new monodic style to sacred music, and as the founder of the Roman school of the 17th
century
  which included Mazzocchi, Carissimi and Alessandro Scarlatti.
