RePIM - Repertorio della Poesia Italiana in Musica, 1500-1700

The “Repertorio della Poesia Italiana in Musica, 1500-1700” (RePIM) is a reference repertoire for research on Italian secular music from the 16th and 17th centuries. It contains a bibliography of literary sources of 1,500 titles; the incipit of over 66,000 musical compositions; a bibliography of circa 3,500 musical sources of secular and spiritual music; an authority file with circa 1,400 musicians and 3,200 poets. The RePIM catalog, edited by Lorenzo Bianconi, Antonio Vassalli and Angelo Pompilio at the University of Bologna since late 1970s, was conceived as a tool to support scholars in identifying authors of poetic writings used by musicians in the profane and spiritual vocal production of the 16th and 17th centuries.
