Palestrina Exhibit Compiled
By the Library of Congress

the musical embodiment of the spirit
of church music --.-.
The exhibit, which is located on the
second floor of the Library Building.
contains many original works, fac
SMILES, prints of the great composer.
and of the churches and other places
associated with his life.
OF special interest is the first edi-
ton of collected Halian madrigals,
published in London. with English
translation. . 1t contains samples of
Pedestrians madrigals and was issued
in 1888 during the composers lifetime.
There are splendid color views of
the Roman cathedrals in which Pales-
trina directed his choirs. OF these
views the most notable is a copy of
an old engraving showing the interior
of St. Peters Cathedral. This work
was executed by the famous Piranesi
One of the display cases contains
a colored reproduction of an ancient
Roman mosaic, which was found in
the seventeenth century while eXcava-
tions were being made at the town
of Palestrina-the birthplace of the
famous composer.
Among the reproductions of en-
cravings depicting madrigal singers
and others of the older epoch, are two
panels executed by the noted Hubert
and Jan Eyck. The originals are in
the Cathedral of Client. Belgium.
There are many biographies of Pa
lestrina the most important is the first
exhaustive work of Baini, published
in 1928

q T the Library OF Congress there is
now on view an exhibit dedicated
TO. the composer Palestrina, in com
is q brief comment on this exhibit,
written by DR.. Alicia Simon, Polish
musicologist. who is a member of the
library's staff:
The music division of the Library
of Congress has arranged a special
display to commemorate the four
hundredth anniversary Of the birth
of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina,
the greatest composer of liturgical
music of all times.
AS composer and leader of the
Pontificial Choir, Palestrina ranks
high in the history of music. His
greatness was in no small measure
due to the influence of ST. Philip
Neri. AS the saints penitent and
spiritual disciple, he gained that in
sight into the spirit of liturgy which
enabled him to set 1t forth in vocal
music as it had never before been
done.
His innovations brought about the
rejection of musical forms and elabora-
tions tending to mutilate or obscure
the liturgical text, and the elimina-
tion of all themes reminiscent of or
resembling secular music.
Pedestrians significance lies in his
creative and constructive powers, and
in the fact that he made them the
medium for the expression in tones of
the state of his own soul His Gre
ations Will stand forth for all time as
