I have read this article and I am sorry to say that I do not feel very enlightened by it- inasmuch as I cannot grasp what it is about the madrigal style which sets it apart from other styles of singing. I hope someone can find a way of expressing this more clearly IceDragon64 18:50, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
Please see the Wiktionary entry, which describes the later Madrigal form as polyphonic and for around six voices. This was more what I was expecting. IceDragon64 18:57, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
I moved Monteverdi from Classic Madrigalists to Late Madrigalists -- there was no reason, based on chronology, that he should be grouped in with a bunch of high-Renaissance composers instead of the late-16th/early-17th century composers who are in the latter group. This was presumably a simple error in the first place. BluesEtude 18:49, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
I had to read this comment to know a madrigal is a song. This article is written for those who already know the subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.114.15.67 ( talk) 23:45, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
This article needs an introductory statement explaining what a madrigal actually is. Is it prose? Is it poetry? Is it a song? It starts with the assumption that the reader already knows what a madrigal is.-- Wayne355 ( talk) 16:32, 14 June 2013 (UTC)
I feel like the list of composers section needs to be polished. Right now, it is not clear what the point is. Is it a list of all composers of madrigals? Is it a selection of significant composers of madrigals? What criteria were used to select these composers? I think if the editors of this article are clear on the criteria, we can mention them in the section header. We might also want to add some information for each composer, such as birth and death years, or years of madrigal composition. I can work on this. I just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. - Geoffg ( talk) 06:35, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
