Events

  • Claudin de Sermisy is a member of the court orchestra of King Francis I of France. From 1533 the composer worked as sous-maître over all musicians in the royal band; Cardinal François de Tournon , a close confidante of the king, is in charge of the administration . As sous-maître , de Sermisy directs the performances of around 40 adult singers and six choirboys that the royal chapel owned during the 1530s and 1540s; In addition, he is responsible for the well-being of the boys and oversees the chapel's liturgical and musical books. He held this office until around 1553.
  • Tielman Susato has been a member of the Antwerp Town Musicians since 1531; he plays the instruments flute , recorder , Krummhorn , field trumpet and trombone , and perhaps also the evening prayer of the brotherhood accompanied.
  • Thomas Tallis was organist at the Augustinian Abbey of Waltham north of London from 1532 to 1540 .
  • John Taverner , who was choirmaster at the newly founded Cardinal's College (now Christ Church College and Cathedral ) in Oxford until 1530 , appears in the files of the city of Boston in Lincolnshire in 1536 . The affluent parish of St. Botolph's Church has a choir of 30 singers. The Church's guilds lose their financial means due to royal edicts, so Taverner's employment there ends in 1537.
  • Adrian Willaert has been the cathedral music director of San Marco in Venice since December 12, 1527 . The composer held this post for 35 years until his death; It is only through his work that this position gains its outstanding importance throughout Europe. Willaert is the successor to Petrus de Fossis († before July 7, 1526).
