All ten of Boccaccio's Decameron songs are in ballata form, a typical 14th century Italian song form. I plunged into the surviving codices, looking for ballate that most closely matched the syllable count; and, after carefully following the underlay of the original borrowed songs (exquisitely florid phrases, funkily syncopated hockets, rest-broken words and all), took them to my bandmates for us to use as the starting point in our (often very quick) journey to somewhere else entirely. - Caitriona O'LearyDisc 11. Io son sà vaga della mia bellezza2. Qual donna cantera3. Niuna Sconsolata4. Regina Pretiosa5. Lagrimando dimostro6. Amor, la vaga luceDisc 21. Amor, s'io posso uscir de' tuoi artigli2. Love's Claw3. Deh, lassa la mia vita4. Tanto e, Amore, il bene5. Io mi son giovinetta6. S'amor venisse senze gelosia7. Irae Dance
