The secular madrigals and napolitanes composed by Tudino are most notable for the qualitative characteristics developed in each song type. The madrigals were set in four or eight voices with chromatic harmonic progressions used to express textual data concerned with grief. Textual material, itself, was well written with a clear articulation of accidentals and a dominant use of black note. Rhythmic variations and syncopations also characterize the madrigals. Tudino's napolitanes were often scored in note-against-note sonorities based on existing cantus. Some of his settings, however, are clearly original three part arrangements countering the cantus. The content of these latter poems usually dealt with matters of love in the Classical sense. ~ Keith Johnson, Rovi
