We are pleased to announce the publication of an essay dedicated to Sordellina (a polyphonic bellows-blown bagpipe commonly used at the great Italian courts between the end of the 16th and the second half of the 17th centuries) written by our Marco Iamele on the new scientific journal of the musicological/ethnomusicological field "Acusfere", directed by profs. Maurizio Agamennone and Vincenzo Caporaletti.

Here you can see how Sordellina looks and what it sounds like:

Marco's research, which began several years ago, is focused on the recognition and analysis of the few available sources in order to evaluate the organological characteristics highlighted for a reconstruction of the possible executive practice and areas of use of the instrument. The evaluations were also possible thanks to the recent reconstruction of the instrument by Marco Tomassi.

La Pellegrina is very proud to have been part of this rediscovery as the first and only group that plays with an historically reconstructed Sordellina in modern times!

ABSTRACT
Marco Iamele “The missing sordellina”. History, repertoire and reconstruction of a courtly instrument of the seventeenth century.

The sordellina was a polyphonic bellows-blown bagpipe commonly used at the great Italian courts (Naples, Florence, Milan) between the end of the 16th and the second half of the 17th centuries. It was known in Europe for the Commedia dell’Arte, and in France it exerted such a charm that it was praised, sought after and imitated in court instruments, first of all the Musette de cour. Around the 1630s, in Italy, the sordellina became the object of interest of Manfredo Settala: an antiquarian and inventor, he equipped the instrument with a complex system of keys mounted on three chanters — at the time, an uncommon technology — thus widening its harmonic and melodic ranges and making it apt for both sacred and secular music. The instrument was built with such a technical and artistic skill as to make it almost a “collector’s item”. Unfortunately, no original exemplar has survived. Nevertheless, the recent reconstruction by luthier and musician Marco Tomassi — based on a pictorial canvas by Nuvolone depicting Settala with some of his inventions and a sordellina in the foreground — opened new research perspectives and brought to new life, after more than 400 years, an aerophone that is unique in terms of technological conception and musical possibilities.

Marco Iamele is a musician and musicologist, he holds a Master’s Degree in Classical Philology (University of Cassino) and Musicology (Sapienza University of Rome), I and II level Academic Degrees in Recorder (Conservatory of Music of Latina), and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Archival Studies, Paleography, and Diplomatics (State Archives of Naples and Vatican Secret Archives). He is also studying the Renaissance and Baroque Cornetto, Music Composition (Conservatory of Music of Latina), Music Production and Sound Engineer (Tor Vergata University of Rome). He is currently engaged in musicological research on 15th to 18th-century repertoires. He is also engaged in an intense activity as an instrumentalist, with musical programs ranging from ancient music to “world music”. He frequently holds courses on bagpipes and ancient and traditional multi-pipe aerophones.
