​FERRETTI, Giovanni, born at Venice about 1540, composed five books of 'Canzoni' in 5 parts (Venice 1567–91), 2 books in 6 parts (Venice 1576–86), and another of 5-part madrigals (Venice 1588), all excellent examples of their kind. A madrigal of his, 'Siat' avertiti,' for 5 voices, is included in Webb's madrigals.
