Description:
A cappella setting by Antonio Scandello (1517-1580)
Arrangement for four voices and percussion, vocals and production by Dirigent

Loop-free except for three vocal samples from the GB JamPack Voices

After "Trooper's Serenade" http://www.macjams.com/song/45117 the second madrigal-adventure of a German soldier who came to Italy in the sixteenth century - looking for love, not for war.
This time he meets a woman which seems to be beautiful, but she's maybe a little bit too old for him ... (The language is old Italian with a German accent; I've tried an English translation below)

Enjoy ...

Lyrics:
Bonzorno madonna, benvegnua,
voi seti bella, galante, polita,
sarest anche pi bella,
se voi non fusti tanto veccharella,
tandaridontan ....

Hello my lady, welcome!
You are beautiful, amiable and friendly,
you would be still more beautiful,
if you were not such a little bit elderly,
tandaridontan ....

your vocal control is amazing, but this time you outdid yourself my friend. I like the change and the rhythm you put together for the back tracks. This is very different with it's combination of old and new sounds.

Excellent work Andreas, just excellent.
