Nicholas Yonge (also spelled Young, Younge; c. 1560 in Lewes, Sussex – buried 23 October 1619 in St Michael, Cornhill, London) was an English singer and publisher. He is most famous for publishing the Musica transalpina (1588), a collection of Italian madrigals with their words translated into English. This proved to be explosively popular, beginning (or fueling) a vogue for madrigal composing and singing in England which lasted into the first two decades of the 17th century. Indeed, William Heather, founder of the music chair at Oxford University, included the book in his portrait, painted c. 1627, confirming the longevity of Musica transalpina's influence and popularity.

  • Nicholas Yonge (c. 1560 - † 23 de octubre de 1619) fue un cantante y editor de música inglés . Es conocido por publicar la colección "Música transalpina" ( 1588 ), formada por madrigales italianos con los textos traducidos al inglés. Estos madrigales resultaron explosivamente populares, alimentando la moda de cantar y componer madrigales en Inglaterra que floreció hasta las primeras décadas del Siglo XVII. William Heather, fundador de la cátedra de música de la Universidad de Oxford incluyó al libro en su retarto en 1627, confirmando la longevidad de Música transalpina, en influencia y popularidad. Música transalpina contiene 57 piezas de 18 compositores, la mayoría de , y muchas de Luca Marenzio. Ferrabosco vivió en Inglaterra hasta 1578 , lo que podría explicar el gran número de sus composiciones en el libro, ya que era relativamente desconocido en Italia. En 1597 Younge publicó un segundo libro, (Música transalpina: the Second Booke of Madrigalles, ... translated out of Sundrie Italian Authors) . Compositores ingleses como John Wilbye y Thomas Weelkes usaron las obras de ambas publicaciones como modelo de su propio trabajo. (es)

Indeed, William Heather, founder of the music chair at Oxford University, included the book in his portrait, painted c. 1627, confirming the longevity of Musica transalpina's influence and popularity. Musica transalpina contains 57 separate pieces by 18 composers, with Alfonso Ferrabosco the elder having the most, and Luca Marenzio second most. Ferrabosco was living in England until 1578, which could explain the large number of his compositions in the book; he was relatively unknown in Italy. In 1597, Yonge published a second book (Musica transalpina: the Second Booke of Madrigalles, ... translated out of Sundrie Italian Authors). Composers such as John Wilbye and Thomas Weelkes used the pieces in both collections as models for their work. (en)
