Serafino Razzi (1531–1613), born in Marradi and later residing in Florence, was a notable Italian Dominican friar celebrated for his contributions to music and literature.
In 1563, he unveiled a substantial compilation of carnival songs within the lauda genre, titled Libro primo delle laudi spirituale.
This collection stands as a vibrant mosaic, showcasing pieces of diverse ages and characters drawn from the rich musical landscape of Florence.
Comprising 91 lauda settings for one to four voices, Razzi's work reflects his extensive travels, meticulously chronicled in his diaries.
Razzi's sister was the sculptor and nun Maria Angelica Razzi.
