Question

Which songs have lyrics that often are rustic, humorous, and are about love?

A.) motets
B.) madrigals
C.) chants
D.) psalms

Answer 1

Either chants or madrigals, because motets and psalms are basically songs that are sacred, relating to the bible or chorus. So either it's chants or madrigals

Hope this helps ^^

Answer 2

B.) madrigals

Step-by-step explanation:

The term “madrigal”, as well as several others in the musical language, has its origin in the terminology proper to literary forms, and over time it has taken on several meanings. Today it can even indicate a small vocal ensemble dedicated to the practice of choral music without instrumental accompaniment.

There are authors who defend the origin of the word madrigal as coming from "mandra", herd, referring to texts that deal with pastoral matters; others, which were poetry and texts sung in the mother tongue, matrix, matricália (differently from what was learned until the beginning of the 13th century, where Latin was the official language) and, perhaps, the meaning of madrigal is more close to this definition: text sung in the language of the country.
