III. WATER FROM YOUR SPRING
What was in that candle's light
that opened and consumed me so quickly?

In the 16th century, this Jewish Italian composer and violinist, fellow-student and collaborator of Claudio Monteverdi, wrote some thirty liturgical pieces for three to eight mixed voices. They fell into oblivion. In 1870, in Paris, Samuel Naumbourg, helped by the young Vincent d'Indy, brought them together in a volume and made them partially adopted by some synagogues. "Shir Lama'alot" for five voices is a composition taken from Rossi's book "Hashirim Asher Lishlomo", printed in Venice in 1623.
