The madrigal was a very popular musical genre in the Renaissance. Explain in detail the madrigal, and include the instrumentation, (the number and type of voices used), and the musical elements that the composers used to make the text in the pieces come alive. Choose one of the musical examples of the madrigal in this unit: Arcadelt�s II bianco e dolce cigno, or John Farmer�s Fair Phyllis, and explain how the composer unites the poetry and music.

Your response should be at least 200 words in length. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
