Music year 1516
Renaissance lute
The renaissance lute - shown here on a detail of the picture Presentation in the Temple by Vittore Carpaccio from the years 1490–1495 - is a buckled neck lute in quart / third tuning , as it was first used in Europe from around 1500 to 1620 . In Europe it has frets made of gut strings. The transition from playing the pick to touching the finger ( Arnold Schlick and Hans Judenkönig ) at the beginning of the 16th century is decisive . Separate fingering ( tabs, lute tabs ) are also developed for the lute .

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.

  • Marbrianus de Orto , who has been premier chapelain of the court chapel of the regent Margaret of Austria since 1510 and of the Duke of the Burgundian Netherlands Charles (later Emperor Charles V ) in Brussels since 1510 , alternates in this office with Anthoine de Berghes until 1517. This change is related to residency obligations at other churches, after he worked as a canon at the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Antwerp (Church of Our Lady) from 1510 and in the same position at Saint-Gudule in Brussels from 1513.

He accompanied the king and his court to Bologna in January 1516 to sign the Bologna Concordat on January 30, 1516. There Richafort received further benefices and other awards from Pope Leo X.
  • Pierre de la Rue is - like Nicolas Champion and Marbrianus de Orto - active in the court chapel of the Duke of the Burgundian Netherlands Charles (later Emperor Charles V) in Brussels.

  • Claudin de Sermisy works as a clergyman in the Diocese of Noyon and - like Antonius Divitis and Jean Mouton - as a singer in the court chapel of King Francis I of France. He almost certainly accompanied his employer to Italy in the summer of 1515 and sang mass with the royal chapel at the meeting of King Francis with Pope Leo X in Bologna from December 11 to 15, 1515 . The outcome of the meeting is the Bologna Concordat between the Vatican and France. Pope Leo shows his generosity by rewarding several members of the king's company, for example on December 17, 1515 the royal conductor Antoine du Longueval († 1525) and the main composer Jean Mouton . On January 30th, 1516, he granted a donation to "Claudio de Sermysy canonico Noviomensis" and four other royal singers, including the composer Jean Richafort , which allowed them to take on a special benefice. On March 31 of the same year, the Pope gave the royal singer and organist Pierre Mouton the priority .
