Sirch, Licia
- Abstract
The cantata was the most diffuse genre of vocal chamber music in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Italy and many libraries today still have a large quantity of music in the cantata repertory. The article presents and describes the Clori project, a new bibliographic tool designed to create a database of the vast cantata repertory. The online database of sources of the Italian cantata, as result of the collaboration of various experts, incorporates the knowledge, experience, and resources of both printed and digital technology. The structure of the bibliographic records and its specific are illustrated with examples. Decisions taken are briefly discussed. Clori is an initiative of the Italian Musicological Society (SIdM) and is supported by the Istituto Italiano per la Storia della Musica.
