Abstract: This article examines the lifetime editions of works by Carlo Gesualdo, the great Italian Renaissance composer, which may shed new light on the figure of this extraordinary musician and, at the same time, identify distinctive features of music printing in this era – in particular, the system of publication of vocal scores in parties ("books"). The author attempts to determine the relationship of the editions to the common rules and usage regularities of the era and, in addition, to identify individual characteristics of the composer as manifested in the publications.The study is based on publications held in libraries and archives – in particular the catalogue of Gaetano Gaspari (Bologna) – as well as on the existing body of literature on Gesualdo in foreign languages.This research on early printed editions of Gesualdo’s music introduces Russian-speaking musicology to the topic and will prove valuable to anyone interested in the work of this unique composer.

Abstract: This article is devoted to the Italian church music of the 18th century, in particular to problems of correlation between the "old" and "new" styles of writing: stile antico, preserving the principles of Renaissance polyphony, and stile moderno, guided by new, more open standards and the stylistics of secular genres, above all opera. Interpretations are presented of the genre of the Mass (Messa concertata) and the small church genres, and of the specific nature of certain centers of church music (Rome, Bologna, Venice and Naples). Particular attention is paid to sacred music by A. Lotti, A. Vivaldi, L. Leo, G.B. Pergolesi and B. Galuppi.The article employs a comparative methodology and historical approach, which is manifested in particular in its reliance on theoretical concepts common in the 18th century.This is the first examination of 18th century Italian church music to consider the entire phenomenon from the perspective of the coexistence of regional traditions as well as from the standpoint of the relations of the "archaic" and the "new" within it. The author concludes that this music was going through a critical period in its history, while in many ways remaining "in the shadow" of the opera.
