Biography

Perissone Cambio was a Franco-Flemish composer and singer of the Renaissance, active in Venice. He was one of the most prominent students and colleagues of Adrian Willaert during the formative years of the Venetian School, and published several books of madrigals in the 1540s. Perissone became one of Willaert's students, and part of a close group which included Girolamo Parabosco, Baldassare Donato, Jacques Buus, Jacques Du Pont, and Cipriano de Rore; in addition he acquired a reputation as an excellent singer, most likely of high vocal parts.

List of choral works

Amor m'à posto come segno a strale Amor se quei begli occhi Ancor che col partire Chi mette il piè su l'amorosa pania Del breve viver mio

Fresch'erbe, vaghi fiori, ombre secrete I' vidi in terra Li nostri preti han questa bona usanza Liet' e pensose Quando nascesti, Amore?

Sapete amanti perche amor e cieco Scarpello si vedra di piombo Zucharo porti dentro
