Salamone Rossi: Jewish Musician in Late Renaissance Mantua
Don Harran (Artur Rubinstein Professor of Musicology, Artur Rubinstein Professor of Musicology, Hebrew University, Jerusalem)
Salamone Rossi occupies a unique place in Renaissance music culture: he was the earliest outstanding Jewish composer to work in the European music tradition. Working for the Gonzaga dukes in Mantua, yet remaining faithful to his own religious community, Rossi’s life provides unique insights on life during the Renaissance and on such contemporary questions as how individuals respond to competing cultural influences.
