Events

  • Martin Agricola , who initially worked on his parents' farm, began traveling in Eastern Germany in 1510. During this phase he acquires the basics of his musical knowledge as an autodidact . The stations of his journey are unknown; Frankfurt (Oder) and Leipzig probably belonged to them.
  • Cosmas Alder attended the St. Vinzenz Abbey School in Bern until 1511 .
  • Bonifacius Amerbach studies at the Artistic Faculty of the University of Basel and listens to music theory . He composes songs based on Heinrich Isaac and Ludwig Senfl . He also takes music lessons from the organist Johannes Kotter . The result is a book of tablature , which as Codex Amerbach is one of the most extensive works of the early 16th century.
  • Noel Bauldeweyn worked from 1509 to 1513 as magister cantorum in the Church of St. Rombaut in Mechelen , succeeding Jean Richafort . This is evidenced by a note about the activities of "Natalis Balduini" in the chapter files of the Church of St. Rombaut.
  • Antoine Brumel , who was the conductor in the court orchestra of the d'Este family in Ferrara , went to Mantua like most of the other dismissed musicians after the court orchestra was dissolved in 1510 . a document dated May 11, 1512 suggests.
  • Hans Buchner , cathedral organist at the Cathedral of Our Lady in Constance , is also in demand as an organ expert. In 1511 he was in Freiburg, presumably because of the cathedral organ there.
  • 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 is a member of Charles V's court orchestra . Here he has a high rank and is paid very well, even if he does not reach the rank of Pierre de la Rue . Through his good contacts and his services at court, he acquired a number of benefits in the cities of Bruges , Namur , Lens , Lier, Oostvoorne , Valenciennes , Geervliet and Brielle from 1508 to around 1520 .
  • 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. Josquin Desprez worked in this position for 17 years until the end of his life.
  • Sixt Dietrich studies at the University of Freiburg .
  • Antonius Divitis is a singer in the court orchestra of the French Queen Anne de Bretagne , where Jean Mouton , Claude de Sermisy and Jean Richafort were employed at the time.
  • Pedro de Escobar is Magister Puerorum at the cathedral in Seville until his resignation 1514th
  • Robert Fayrfax , who had already obtained the degree of Doctor of Music in Cambridge in 1504 , received this doctorate also in Oxford in 1511 .
  • Antoine de Févin , who presumably lives in Paris and has a job at the French royal court or is associated with this institution, dies at the end of the year.
  • According to an archival document, Heinrich Finck is employed at the Stuttgart court of Ulrich von Württemberg with an annual salary of 60 guilders (term of office with interruptions from 1498 to 1550), namely as a “capellmaister” or “singemeister”. The extent of Finck's involvement in Duke Ulrich's wedding with Sabina von Bayern in March 1511 is uncertain and controversial. A cautious assumption is that only the seven-part creed of the “Missa in summis” with the secular wedding song “O Venus bant ”and perhaps also the seven-part antiphon “ Veni sancte spiritus: Reple tuorum ”are related to this wedding.
  • Johannes Ghiselin , who left the farm of the d'Este family in Ferrara in 1505 after the outbreak of the plague, is a member of the Onze Lieve Vrouwe (Our Lady) brotherhood in Bergen op Zoom in Flanders . This shows a Brotherhood payroll dating back to 1507, with the amount paid out indicating membership for at least a year. The Brotherhood's payrolls for the years 1508-1510 have been lost, and his name no longer appears on the 1511 list. Since no other works by him have appeared since 1505, it can be concluded that Ghiselin died between 1507 and 1511.
  • Nicolas Gombert is possibly a student of Josquin Desprez, who has been provost in Condé-sur-l'Escaut, about 40 km away, since 1504 .
  • Lupus Hellinck , who was accepted as a choirboy at the Church of St. Donatia n in Bruges on May 24th, 1506, was released from choir service in 1511 after his voice broke to attend school.

  • Georg Liban , the one in the degree Krakow 1502 Bakkalaureus has acquired, is 1511 Magiste r . He then lectured at the University of Kraków and worked at the St. Mary 's School from around 1506 to 1528 .
  • Rossino Mantovano , who joined the choir of Mantua Cathedral as an alto in 1509 , worked there as maestro di canto from 1510-11 .
  • Some state motets by Jean Mouton suggest that he was in the service of Queen Anne de Bretagne , wife of King Louis XII, before 1509 . of France (reign 1498–1515). More composers are gathered in her court orchestra than in King Ludwig's, besides Mouton, for example, Antonius Divitis, Jean Richafort and Claudin de Sermisy.
  • Marbrianus de Orto , who has been the premier chapelain of the court orchestra of Regent Margaret of Austria in Brussels since 1510 , alternates in this office with Anthoine de Berghes until 1517. This change is connected with residency duties at other churches, after he was canon at the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Antwerp (Church of Our Lady) from 1510 and was employed in the same function at Saint-Gudule in Brussels from 1513.
  • Francesco Patavino is cantor and priest at the Padua Cathedral . He stayed there until July 1512.

  • Jean Richafort has been a member of the chapel of the French Queen Anne de Bretagne since August 1509 .
  • Pierre de la Rue is - like Nicolas Champion and Marbrianus de Orto - active in the court chapel of the regent Margaret of Austria in Brussels .

  • In 1511 Arnolt Schlick published Der Spiegel der Organmacher und Organisten . In this work, on 59 pages, he deals with aspects of organ construction (e.g. scale length , pipe material , bellows , windchest , installation location) and the time and type of tuning of organs, whereby he does not describe the mean- tone tuning usual at the time , but a practice-oriented, unevenly floating one Suggests mood, similar to the moods of Andreas Werckmeister 170 years later. A copy of the long-lost book was not found again until around 1860, a second in 1952.
  • Claudin de Sermisy works as a clergyman in the Diocese of Noyon and as a singer in Queen Anne de Bretagne's private chapel .
