Although in the Baltic Sea countries the reception of the madrigal was much less important than in Western and Northern parts of the continent, the repertory is present in collections of prints, as well as in contrafacta, copies and parodies contained in extant manuscripts. This study is an attempt to reconstruct the paths of dissemination of the madrigal. Prints in the studied area contain 526 items (including copies and re-editions), i.e. about 20 percent of all currently know European madrigal heritage. The analysis of different types of collections leads to the conclusion that the repertory transmitted through anthologies reached a significantly wider audience and penetrated deeper in the consciousness of local composers.
