The arrival of Margaret of Parma in Abruzzi in 1569 and her subsequent settlement in Aquila, where she became the permanent governor in 1572, breathed new life into a territory in decline, especially after it had suffered harsh repression from the Spanish government in 1529. The local community's expectations of regaining prestige thanks to such a distinguished presence resulted in a state of permanent euphoria, marked by ceremonial entrances and various entertainments where music always played a significant role. Analysis of the context leads to the contextualization of new works, including two five-voice madrigals composed for 'Madama's' arrivals in Aquila in 1569 and 1572, respectively, and also reveals artistic and professional interactions between the court chapel and musicians active in the area.
