Marieta Morosina Priuli
Marieta Morosina Priuli (fl. 1665) was an Italian composer.
She was born in Venice into the Morosina family.[1][2] Priuli published two collections of works in 1665, one dedicated to the Habsburg Dowager Empress Eleonor Magdalene of Neuburg entitled Balletti e correnti. It included five sets of pieces for three string instruments and harpsichord continuo, and eight correnti.[3] The other one entitled Correnti Da sonarsi col Violino, e spinetta is dedicated to Maria Mancini and includes twelve correnti for violin and basso continuo.[4]
Several Italian women from this period of time are known to have published instrumental music. Both Priuli and Isabella Leonarda published one collection each, Isabella Leonarda's Opus 16; Priuli's Balletti e correnti.[5]
