	Franchinus Gaffurius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Franchinus Gaffurius (January 14, 1451 – June 25, 1522) was an Italian music theorist and composer of the Renaissance.
		Gaffurius retained the post at the cathedral for the rest of his life, and it was in Milan that he knew both Josquin des Prez and Leonardo da Vinci.
		Gaffurius wrote masses, motets, settings of the Magnificat, and hymns, mainly during his Milan years.

	Philippe Basiron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ercole I d'Este, duke of Ferrara, heard of Basiron's fame, and asked that his Missa l'homme armé be sent to him.
		Eloy d'Amerval mentioned Basiron in 1508 as among the "20 great composers of the 15th century"; both Pierre Moulu and theorist Gaffurius praised him highly; and most famously, poet Guillaume Crétin, in his Déploration sur le trépas de Jean Ockeghem, listed Basiron among the sweetly singing angels in heaven welcoming Ockeghem to join them.

		From 1451 to 1522, Gaffurius was conductor of the Milan Cathedral and was considered the authority on musical theory.
		He related theory and practice, thus enhancing the application of intervals and musical notation.

	Leonardo Da Vinci - Crystalinks
		Melzi, however, became his pupil and life companion.
		Leonardo had many other friends who are now figures renowned in their fields, or for their influence on history; these included Niccolò Machiavelli, Cesare Borgia and Franchinus Gaffurius.
		The earliest known dated work of Leonardo's is a drawing done in pen and ink of the Arno valley, drawn on the 5th of August 1473.

	"Query: Quality of Number" in the Nexus Network Journal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Although my findings of the 2/3rds, root 1, and root 2 preferences are based on the metal-point lines in Leonardo's drawings, and sources like the floor tiles of Piero della Francesca's 'Flagellation', (see Martin Kemp, The Science of Art: Optical Themes in Western Art from Brunelleschi to Seurat, p.
		31), I've not taken a close look at references to Pythagoras by Renaissance music theorists such as Franchinus Gaffurius.
		Van der Schoot only refers to Gaffurius on page 379 of his book, stating that the musician's reference to Pythagoras has nothing to do with irrational numbers.
