Carlo Gesualdo, known as Gesualdo da Venosa (?March 8, 1566 – September 8, 1613), Prince of Venosa and Count of Conza, was an Italian music composer, lutenist and nobleman of the late Renaissance. He is famous for his intensely expressive madrigals, which use a chromatic language not heard again until the 19th century; and also for committing what are amongst the most notorious murders in musical history. Biography Gesualdo was part of an aristocratic family which acquired the principality of Venosa in 1560.
Luci serene e chiare
Moro, e mentre sospiro
Tal'hor sano desio
Ave, dulcissima Maria
Questa crudele e pia
Che fai meco mio cor
Itene, o miei sospiri
Io tacerò
Sparge la morte
Canzon francese del Principe
