Scherzi Musicali - Monteverdi

The Monteverdi's scherzi differ from his madrigals in that the first are monodic and sung a voce sola with alternated ritornelli. This new practique is also found in his Orfeo (1607), in the 7th book of madrigals and in some madrigals belonging the so famous "Selva morale e Spirituale".

One might thinks of a cheerful character of the  music by judging the name "scherzi", but in fact  it comprises other states, just listen "Si dolce è 'l tormento" or "Ohimè ch'io cado".
