Lucrezia Orsina Vizzana

Lucrezia Orsina Vizzana

Lucrezia Orsina Vizzana (July 3 1590–May 7 1662) was an Italian singer, organist, and composer. She entered a Camaldolese convent in Bologna in 1598. Her works were published in "Componimenti musicali de motetti concertati a 1 e più voci" (Venice, 1623). She was taught by her aunt, Camilla Bombacci, who was the convent organist, and by Ottavio Vernizzi who was the unofficial music master. Vizzana's works are influenced by "stile moderno" ("seconda prattica") music, especially the works of Claudio Monteverdi. Her works are mainly solos or duets with continuo accompaniment.
