Giovanni Ghizzolo
Appearance
Giovanni Ghizzolo (Brescia ca. 1580–Novara ca. 1625) was a composer of motets and madrigals. From 1613 he was maestro di capella successively at Correggio, Ravenna, Padua, and Novara.[1]
His Gioco della cieca Book 1 takes 123 verses from Il pastor fido of Giovanni Battista Guarini (Act III, Scene 2), also set by Gastoldi and others, to make a theatrical madrigal-drama.
