SECCO, ANACLETO. - Barnabite, b. at Cremona in 1585, d. at Milan on 13 Sept. 1636.
He was Superior of several houses of his Order and a Lenten preacher. He published De ecclesiastica hymnodia libri tres (Bologna 1629), on the nobility, the effects and the manner of singing well the Divine Office in choir, which had three Latin editions and one Italian version (Milan 1643); Esercizi di pie meditazioni per rinovazione dello spirito, to be made in the annual retreat practiced by the Barnabites (Milan 1635). Posthumously there appeared, edited by Fr. Maggi, his De Clericorum Regg. S. Pauli congregazione et parentibus synopsis (Milan 1682), of primary importance in the historiography of the Order, as it was in the process of canonization of the founder St. Anthony M. Zaccaria.
