Talk:Czech Lute

Choral or madrigal?
I filed this under "choral compositions," but would it be appropriate to file it instead, or additionally, under "madrigals," since it was originally for four people? What is it like musically? –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 23:30, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

I am not too much of an expert on this topic, but a madrigal is a secular piece of vocal music, while the Czech Lute has distinct references to religion. I am not quite sure about filing it under choral either, because it was, as you said, originally written for four voices. Musically it does not only include voices, but also a couple of early Baroque instruments, you can listen to it on youtube under the Czech title "Loutna Česká."
