Abstract
ARIE DEVOTE, a collection of 20 sacred arias composed by Ottavio Durante Romano in 1608, represents an early fusion of secular style into sacred solo vocal music. The collection was published in Rome by Simone Verovio and dedicated to Alessandro Cardinal Montalto Peretti. This edition explores the unique ornamentation style reminiscent of Giulio Caccini’s Le nuove musiche (Florence 1602). While the preface serves as a valuable source for early Baroque sacred music performance, the musical pieces remain underexplored. This edition aims to enhance accessibility, offering translations of sung texts, historical overviews, and insights into the Roman musical landscape. By making historically informed recordings and collaborating with experts in basso continuo and the music of that time, we aspire to shed light on the lesser-known sacred vocal music of Ottavio Durante.
