    - p.III : 'The introductory words Illuxit nunc sacra dies, as well as the words celebranda per orbem (bars 13-15) and salus (23 f.) used further on in the same motet, are obviously emphasised by rapidly ascending movement or high position, particularly in the Cantus.'

    - p.193 : Il Cicalamento was published by Girolamo Scotto in 1567 and reprinted by the same firm in 1569 and 1584. The first edition paired the piece with another of Striggio’s madrigal comedies and a Rore work: Il Cicalamento delle donneal bucato, et la caccia di Alessandro Striggio, con un lamento di Didone ad Enea, per la sua partenza, di Cipriano Rore… (Venice: Scotto, 1567). The reprints replaced De Rore with Striggio's third and final madrigal comedy: Il cicalamento delle donne al bucato et la caccia di Alessandro Striggio, a quarto, cinque sei e sette voci, con il gioco di primiera a cinque voci.
