This genre and the ricercar were among Claudio Merulo’s significant innovations to transition keyboard music away from imitation of vocal styles. A composer’s note at the end of a piece in this genre reads “not without toil will you reach the end,” which was included in the second of two books of these non-partita pieces by Girolamo Frescobaldi. A piece in this genre unusually scored for trumpets opens Monteverdi’s opera (*) L’Orfeo. A mordent on A followed by a descending D minor scale opens an organ piece in this genre that was arranged for orchestra by Leopold Stokowski to open Disney’s Fantasia. For 10 points, name this (-5[1])genre whose name derives (-5[1])from the Italian (10[1])for “touch” and is paired with a fugue in a famous D minor piece by Bach. ■END■
