CLICK HERE for Books about this composer. CLICK HERE for Sheet Music by this composer. Major Works: Madrigals Other Information: Don Carlo Gesualdo, prince of Venosa, may have been born in Venice on March 8, 1566. Birth records from 16th century Venice are not always reliable. Standard reference literature often states "circa 1560 or 1561" as his birth date. In any case, Gesualdo is known to have died September 8, 1613. He was born into an old and noble Neapolitan family and was the nephew of Saint Charles Borromeo. He became interested in music as a youth and began composing conservative madrigals and sacred works. His personal life, however, was not so conservative. In 1590 he arranged for the murder of his adulterous wife, the lovely Maria d'Avalos, and her lover. Although he was never brought to justice for these acts, the scandal was enormous and many a poet of the time wrote stanzas proclaiming the misfortune of Maria d'Avalos.

Classical Music Home CARLO GESUALDO Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa, murderer in 1590 of his guilty wife and her lover, later took a wife from the d'Este family, rulers of Ferrara, whose musical interests coincided with his own. He wrote a quantity of sacred and secular vocal music and a relatively small number of instrumental pieces. In style his music is unexpected in its sudden changes of tonality, its harmony and its intensity of feeling, qualities that have found particular favour among some modern theorists. Secular Vocal Music Gesualdo, a nobleman of melancholy reserve, published six books of madrigals, the second of them originally under an improbable pseudonym. These include some remarkable and striking compositions, such as the five-voice Moro, lasso, al mio duolo, and the earlier Ahi, disperata vita. Sacred Vocal Music Gesualdo's numerous sacred compositions include works intended for the liturgy of Good Friday and Holy Saturday, as well as Marian compositions such as Ave, dulcissima Maria and Ave, regina caelorum. Volumes of sacred music in a Sacrarum cantionum liber primus (First Book of Sacred Songs) of works in five parts and another of works in six and seven parts were published in Naples in 1603.

Gesualdo, Carlo From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Carleton S. Coon) Next (Carlos Castaneda) Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa. Carlo Gesualdo , known as Gesualdo da Venosa (March 8, 1566 – September 8, 1613), Prince of Venosa and Count of Conza, was an Italian composer and lutist of the late Renaissance music as well as a nobleman and notorious murderer . He is famous for his intensely expressive madrigals, which use a chromatic language not heard of until the nineteenth century. He is also famous for committing what are possibly the most famous murders in musical history. Contents Biography The murders Ferrara years Return to Gesualdo, and final years ... Credits Biography Gesualdo was part of an aristocratic family which acquired the principality of Venosa in 1560. His uncle was Carlo Borromeo, later known as Saint Charles Borromeo. In addition, Gesualdo's mother, Girolama, was the niece of Pope Pius IV. harpsichord and guitar The murders In 1586, Gesualdo married his first cousin, Donna Maria d'Avalos, the daughter of the Marquis of Pescara. Two years later, she began a love affair with Fabrizio Carafa, the Duke of Andria. Evidently she was able to keep it secret from her husband for almost two years, even though the existence of the affair was well-known elsewhere. Finally, on October 16, 1590, at the Palazzo San Severo in Naples, when Gesualdo had allegedly gone away on a hunting trip, the two lovers took insufficient precaution. It is rumored that Gesualdo had arranged with his servants for the doors to be left unlocked. He returned to the palace, caught them, and brutally murdered them both in their bed. Afterwards he left their mutilated bodies in front of the palace for all to see. Being a nobleman, he was immune to prosecution, but not to revenge, so he fled to his castle at the town of Gesualdo where he would be safe from any of the relatives of either his wife or her lover.
