Adrian Willaert (1 gen 1490 anni – 1 gen 1576 anni)

Descrizione:

a Netherlandish composer of the Renaissance and founder of the Venetian School. He was one of the most representative members of the generation of northern composers who moved to Italy and transplanted the polyphonic Franco-Flemish style there. Willaert was the last in a long line of Franco-Flemish composers to work in Italy, at St. Mark’s in Venice.

The New Instrumental Music
1. Willaert’s reputation as a perfecter of method enabled him to have
many students.
2. One of his supposed pupils, Cipriano de Rore, succeeded him at St. Mark’s. Jacques Buus also studied with Willaert
3. Italian students of Willaert continued his tradition of excellence in Venice, which became a major center of music study.

He is also considered to be one of the "oltremontani." The Oltremontani, Flemish composers in Italy, were quick to progress and adapt Italian vernacular forms in secular music.
