Due to illness, Arcadelt is not on duty between November 10, 1545 and April 16, 1546, and from May 6, 1546 he takes a year-long home leave, which also serves to take possession of benefices; he does not return to Rome until May 28, 1547.
• Pierre Attaingnant , who invented a variant of sheet music printing around 1527/1528 that allowed printing in one operation, published more than 50 collections of chansons and some “dance books” between 1528 and 1552.

• Jacquet de Berchem left Venice in 1546 and served for some time at Verona Cathedral as maestro di cappella . The preface to his collection of four-part madrigals shows that his employer is Andrea Marzato , a "gentilhuomo napolitano" who was governor of Monopoli for some time in the first half of the 16th century. In 1546 his first book of madrigals was published with exclusively his own works.
• Pietro Paolo Borrono published his collection Libro secondo di una collanna di Intabolatura di lauto in 1546 .
