Description: The Corona dei mesi (Cicle of the Months) is a cycle of 12 sonnets on the 12 months of the year by the 13th century Italian poet Folgòre da San Gimignano (1280-1330). Only a few works of his have survived, of which this cycle is the best known.
Given the twelve months, it is obvious to do something with the twelve tones of the octave. I have chosen to arrange the keys successively from C one semitone higher, alternating major and minor. So it has not become a strict succession of the circle of fifths. The parts connect to each other on a quarterly basis. In principle, each piece ends in the key of the next movement, or leads to it musically. The documents are therefore preferably coupled on a quarterly basis.
In addition, there is an alternation between 4-part mixed choir, 3-part women and men's choir and 6-part mixed choir.
The last part starts in B and ends again in C, completing the “Corona”.
