Giuseppe Scarani

His compositions include two volumes of two-part madrigals (completed by 1628), a volume of Sonate concertante for two and three instruments (op. 1, 1630), which showcase both the church and chamber styles. The title is a reference to a publication by Castello (Sonate concertante in stil moderno), and the whole of the collection easily shows influences from this and other early baroque masterpieces by Castello and Marini.

His only other extant contributions are a volume of Concerti ecclesiastici (op. 2, 1641), a manuscript motet, Bona Jesu, and another motet published in the Dritter Theil geistlichen Concerten und Harmonien in Leipzig, in 1642.
