Events

  • January 19th: Pedro Juan Aldomar becomes conductor at the Barcelona Cathedral .
  • May 24th : Lupus Hellinck is accepted as a choirboy at St. Donatian's Church in Bruges . At that time he is referred to as the son of Johannes Hellynck from the diocese of Utrecht .
  • June 19 : Hans Buchner , who may previously have been in the service of Emperor Maximilian I for a short time , is appointed cathedral organist at the Cathedral of Our Lady in Constance . In the service contract that has been handed down, the dates and occasions on which the organ is to be played is specified in great detail. During these years, Konstanz was one of the centers of musical life in Germany, where Buchner also met Sebastian Virdung and Sixt Dietrich . The liturgical cultivation of music at the Münster is particularly high; the Domkantorei includes nine Succentoren to which also Virdung and Dietrich belong and eight Sängerknab s .
  • Alexander Agricola , who is a member of the Grande Chapelle of Philip the Fair in Mechelen , follows his employer on his second trip to Spain, which will take place by sea from mid-January. A storm drives part of the fleet, including the musicians' ship, to Falmouth . The fleet will not land in A Coruña until April 27th . Philip the Fair moves his court to Valladolid for the summer and later to Burgos , where he succumbs to a fever in September. Alexander Agricola dies on August 15th of the same year near Valladolid, possibly of the same febrile illness.
  • Arnold von Bruck was accepted into the court chapel of the Duchy of Burgundy around 1506, initially as a choirboy . After the death of Duke Philip the Fair , this chapel is nominally the court chapel of Duke Karl, later Emperor Charles V , who also became Duke of the Habsburg Netherlands in 1506 at the age of only six. Like Karl, Arnold spent his youth at the court of the regent Margaret of Austria in Mechelen . He will stay here until around 1519 and is probably under the formative musical influence of the band masters and composers Marbriano de Orto and Pierre de La Rue .
  • Antoine Brumel , who has been courted by the d'Este family in Ferrara since around the end of 1504 to work as Kapellmeister in their famous and high-ranking court orchestra and who was appointed to this position on December 13, 1505, lets himself in Ferrara resigns and takes up the post of conductor in the spring. The lifelong contract includes an annual benefice of 100 ducats, an annual salary of the same amount, the use of a house in Ferrara and money for travel.
  • Marco Cara has been a lute virtuoso in the service of the Gonzaga family in Mantua since 1495 and until 1525 , who promoted artists of all kinds in his day.
  • Nicolas Champion follows - like Alexander Agricola - as a member of the Grande Chapelle of Philip the Fair in Mechelen his employer on his second trip to Spain. After the death of Philip the Handsome, the court orchestra dissolves. Some of the members return to Burgundy, others, including Nicolas Champion, join the successor band of the widow, Joanna of Castile , who are particularly generous in their wages.
  • Josquin Desprez has been provost at his former place of work in Condé-sur-l'Escaut since 1504 . He is referred to as monsieur le prevost messire Josse des pres . The position is attractive for the former music director not only for its local property ownership, but even more because of the good staffing the church and the quality of the local music exercise, second only to the cathedral in Cambrai and Saint-Vincent in Soignies exceeded becomes. The provost here (according to a list from 1523) holds the secular power in the parish and is the superior of the dean , the treasurer, 25 canons, 18 chaplains, 16 vicars and six choirboys, plus some priests without benefices; A choir of vicars and choirboys usually takes part in the lavishly designed church services, so that up to 22 music-trained voices are available and up to six-part works can be performed.
  • Antonius Divitis follows - like Alexander Agricola - as a member of the Grande Chapelle of Philip the Fair in Mechelen his employer on his second trip to Spain. After the death of Philip the Handsome, the court orchestra dissolves. Some of the members return to Burgundy, others, including Antonius Divitis, join the successor band of the widow, Joanna of Castile, who is particularly generous in terms of wages.
  • Antoine de Févin , whose father Pierre de Févin died in 1506, presumably moves to Paris and gets a job at the French royal court or is at least associated with this institution.
  • Heinrich Glarean begins his studies at the University of Cologne .
  • Nicolas Gombert may already be a pupil of Josquin Desprez, who became provost in 1504 in Condé-sur-l'Escaut, about 40 km away .
  • Jean l'Héritier , who, according to a contemporary note, was a student of Josquin Desprez, goes to Ferrara. Presumably, l'Héritier's walk to Ferrara followed a recommendation from Antoine Brumel, who works here as court conductor in the court orchestra of the d'Este family .
  • Heinrich Isaac lived mainly in Florence from 1502 to 1506 . In the Neustift monastery near Brixen he was accepted as a member of the lay brotherhood there around 1506 or shortly thereafter.
  • Jean Molinet has been a historiographer (chronicler) and court poet at the ducal court of Philip the Fair (reign 1482–1506) in Burgundy since 1482 . Here he is friends with musicians and composers such as Johannes Ockeghem , Loyset Compère , Verjus and Antoine Busnoys .
  • Anton Musa studies in Erfurt .
  • Marbrianus de Orto follows - like Alexander Agricola - as a member of the Grande Chapelle of Philip the Fair in Mechelen his employer on his second trip to Spain. After the death of Philip the Handsome, the court orchestra dissolves. Some of the members return to Burgundy, others, including Marbrianus de Orto, join the successor band of the widow, Joanna of Castile, who are particularly generous in their wages.
  • Johannes Prioris , who may have been a member of the French court orchestra since the end of the 1480s, is verifiably Kapellmeister ( maître de chapelle ) of the court orchestra from 1503 to 1512 .
  • Pierre de la Rue follows - like Alexander Agricola - as a member of the Grande Chapelle of Philip the Fair in Mechelen, his employer on his second trip to Spain. After the death of Philip the Handsome, the court orchestra dissolves. Some of the members return to Burgundy, others, including Pierre de la Rue, join the successor band of the widow, Joanna of Castile, who are particularly generous in their wages. The most important Spanish composer of the time, Juan de Anchieta (1462–1523), who, like de la Rue, wrote a mass “ Nuncqua fiu pena maior ”, is one of the servants of this court . After the departure of the former conductor Marbriano de Orto, Pierre moves up to his position and receives twice as high a salary as the other members of the court orchestra.
  • Towards the end of his work in Padua (1506/07), Crispinus van Stappen became a member of the Marian Brotherhood of St. Jan in 's-Hertogenbosch .
