Catalogue Note
Très rare: Le RISM n'enregistre qu'un seul exemplaire complet à Munich. La première édition de ces madrigaux en trois parties est apparemment perdue et il ne semble pas y en avoir eu une troisième. À l'instar des madrigaux en deux parties de Gero (qui ont été régulièrement réédités jusqu'en 1682; un exemplaire fut dans la vente Landau en 1949), ses madrigaux en trois parties furent aussi populaires en Italie et en Allemagne, malgrès l'extrême rareté des exemplaires d'époque.
Very rare: RISM lists a single complete copy in Munich. The first edition of these three-part madrigals is apparently lost and there does not appear to have been a third. As with Gero's two-part madrigals (which were regularly reprinted until 1682; one was in the Landau sale in 1949), his three-part madrigals were apparently also popular in Italy and Germany, despite the extreme rarity of the present collection.
