Serafino Razzi


Fra Serafino Razzi, was an Italian Dominican friar who in 1563 published a large collection of carnival songs in the lauda genre. Razzi's collection Libro primo delle laudi spirituale is a miscellany of pieces of varying age and character from the music of Florence. It contains 91 lauda settings for one to four voices. Razzi travelled widely and kept diaries of his journeys.
Razzi's sister was the sculptor and nun Maria Angelica Razzi.
