Giovanni Maria da Crema

Giovanni’s lute plans were respected plenty of to be contained in later selections. He may happen to be a member from the sextet of Italian viol players who performed in the courtroom of Henry VIII. His “First publication for intablature from the lute” included 15 ricercares, vocal compositions with intablatures, and chansons and motets by several Italian and French composers. The configurations for the ricercares had been memorable for his or her usage of imitation, 3 to 4 part business and noninclusion of figuration and embellishments.
