Additional info/contents	"Le Gratie d'Amore" (The Grace of Love) is a treatise published in 1602 about the courtly dance art of Cesare Negri, a famous dance master at the Milan court of the Renaissance. It contains numerous dance tunes and dance patterns. The melody “Il bianco fior” (The White Flower), which forms the basis for the first movement of this piece, also comes from this collection. It is a lively three-quarter dance that speeds up towards the end and changes to a straight time signature. At the center of the second movement is the solemn, melancholic melody "Vaghe bellezze..." (Veiled Beauty...). Widely swinging cantilenas frame two solos in which the melody is varied and developed further. The third movement is based on a Saltarello theme by Vincenzo Galilei, father of the famous astronomer, Galileo Galilei. With its hypnotic rhythm and its simultaneously sublime and virtuosic character, this movement brings the piece to a close.

Programme notes *: "Le Gratie d'Amore" (The Grace of Love) is undoubtedly a significant work of courtly dance, published in 1602 by Cesare Negri, a respected dance master at the Milan court of the Renaissance. This treatise is not only a practical guide to the art of dance, but also a cultural testimony to the rich tradition of courtly dances in the 16th century. Cesare Negri, born around 1535 and died around 1605, was an outstanding dance master of his time. His expertise and influence at the Milanese court were significant, and his work "Le Gratie d'Amore" demonstrates his deep understanding of the art of dance and his ability to convey it in written form. "Le Gratie d'Amore" offers a comprehensive collection of dance tunes, dance patterns, and choreographic instructions that give readers an insight into the courtly dance art of the Renaissance. The work contains detailed descriptions of various dance steps and figures as well as instructions for the correct execution and interpretation of the dances. One of the most notable aspects of "Le Gratie d'Amore" is the integration of music and dance. In addition to providing written instructions, Negri also provides musical notations for the various dance pieces. This combination of dance and music allowed dancers to incorporate the rhythmic and melodic nuances of music into their performances, creating a harmonious connection between movement and sound. Furthermore, "Le Gratie d'Amore" bears witness to the diversity and richness of Renaissance court dance art. The work contains a wide range of dance styles, including Pavane, Galliarde, Allemande and more, each with their own characteristics and expressions. This diversity reflects the cultural dynamism and artistic sophistication of the Renaissance era. Overall, "Le Gratie d'Amore" is not only a practical handbook for dance masters and dancers, but also an important cultural document that captures the rich tradition of Renaissance court dance art. Cesare Negri's work has had a significant impact on the development of the art of dance and continues to serve as a valuable resource for dance historians, musicians and dance enthusiasts around the world.
