Abstract

Bartolomeo Mutis, Conte di Cesana, was a court chaplain and singer in the court chapel of Archduke Ferdinand in Graz. In 1613 he published one of the first collections of monodies (numbering fourteen) and small-scale concertos by a composer living outside Italy. Mutis’s compositional style is analysed and compared with that of contemporaries.
