After a very successful collaboration in Fall 2014 on the wonderful conference The Power of Affections, November 13-14, the Center for Italian Studies and the Penn Music Department continue to work on common projects. Mauro Calcagno, Giuseppe Gerbino of Columbia University, and Laurent Pugin of the Répertoire International des Sources Musicales – Switzerland, presented the Marenzio Project, or MODE (Marenzio Online Digital Edition), February 25.
