EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a handwritten page of a treaty of music by the renowned Giovanni Spataro, dating back to 1521. Preserved in the Museo Civico Bibliografico Musicale in Bologna, Italy, this artifact offers a glimpse into the intellectual and artistic pursuits of the 16th century. Giovanni Spataro (1458-1541), an Italian theorist and composer, used this manuscript page to challenge the theories put forth by Franchino Gaffurio (Gafori) (1451-1522). In his quest for musical knowledge and innovation, Spataro questioned established beliefs and sought to push boundaries within his craft. The intricate calligraphy on display reflects both the meticulousness of its creator and the significance placed upon musical theory during that era. The delicate strokes form words that carry centuries-old debates about composition techniques and harmonic principles. As we gaze upon this relic from history, we are transported back to a time when music was not only an art form but also a subject of intense scholarly discourse. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and our unending pursuit of understanding beauty through sound. Luisa Ricciarini's expertly captured image allows us to appreciate not only the content but also the aesthetic appeal of this ancient manuscript. Through her lens, she invites us to delve into an intriguing chapter in music history while reminding us that even centuries later, these pages continue to inspire awe and admiration.
