La Mantovanaとは 意味・読み方・使い方

La Mantovana is a sixteenth century song composed by the Italian tenor Giuseppe Cenci, also known as Giuseppino del Biado, (d. 1616) to the text Fuggi, Fuggi, Fuggi da questo cielo. Its earliest known appearance in print is in del Biado's 1600 collection of madrigals. The melody, later also known as "Ballo di Mantova" or "Aria di Mantova" gained wide currency in Renaissance Europe, being recorded variously as the Scottish “My mistress is prettie,” the Polish “Pod Krakowem,” the Swedish "Ack Värmeland du sköna" and the Ukrainian “Kateryna Kucheryava.” It is best-known as the melody of Bedřich Smetana's The Moldau and of the Israeli national anthem Hatikvah.
