In 1547 was published a collection of music entitled "Ricercari da cantare e sonare," by Jacob Buus.
In those days, as we have already seen, compositions were written "da cantare e sonare," and a canzone for strings was simply a piece of vocal polyphony played instead of sung.
Footnote 424: In the first book of the Moscheis, line 7, he says: Gens ceratana sinat vecchias cantare batajas, Squarzet Virgilios turba pedanta suos.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "cantare" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
