Life

From 1552 to 1565 he was the first organist at St. Mark's Basilica in Venice . Padovano was involved in the introduction of the reciprocal music-making of the two organs and choirs positioned on opposite galleries, from which the Venetian polychoral system was to develop with Adrian Willaert . He then worked as an organist at the court of Archduke Karl in Graz. Here he reorganized the court music and succeeded Johannes de Cleve (1528 / 29–1582) as court conductor from 1570 . The composer published several toccatas and ricercare for organ and orchestra, as well as numerous pieces of church music and madrigals .
