Renaissance 5 voice comedic madrigal [[Sadly bad performed :(]]

Featured Replies

Hello! This piece was one of my favourites to compose, sadly the software that i use to render the lyrics (Cantamus) didnt work nicely for the words: Cricket, Leap'd, Jump'd, Alive, Pass'd and Tra la la. So sorry for that! I hope one day they can update the software and its able to render it correctly!

(If you guys have suggestions for free realistic vocal synthesizers i would be pleased to check them!)

The story is about a woman and her beloved singer cricket, who sadly has passed.

Alternative title (Detto lo) "lament for the death of a singer cricket."

Lyrics:

I once had a cricket green and strong and he went: tra la la la
He leap'd and jump'd and sang,
He did not use the common slang tra la la la
Then one dark day he pass'd my cricket went away
No more music no more dance, goodbye my cricket. tra la la la.

I once had a friend that sang for me and he went: tra la la la
But now he's not alive,
And i still sing in the wildlife tra la la la
No money in this world can buy my cricket back
No gold coins nor golden rings can buy my cricket tra la la la.
