Arcadelt Jacques Arcadelt (also Jacob Arcadelt) (1504 or 1505 — October 14, 1568) was a Franco-Flemish composer of the middle to late Renaissance, principally of madrigals and chansons.
The music of the Roman School can be seen as the culmination of a development of polyphony through the infusion of music of the Franco-Netherlandish school during the last hundred years.
Franco-Netherlandish composers had long been coming to Italy to live and work—Josquin, Obrecht, Arcadelt, and many others made the long journey, and their musical style was decisive on the formation of the Italian styles.

Cipriano de Rore, and Claudio Merulo, who tended to follow the Franco-Flemish style which was predominant most everywhere else in Europe until after mid-century.

The first record of Donato is as a singer at St. Mark's in Venice in 1550, and he was given charge of the musical training of the boys there in 1562.

Brumel is important to modern commentators because he was one of the few leading members of the Franco-Flemish school to be genuinely French, which is to say that he was born outside the boundaries of the Burgundian Empire, somewhere near Chartres.
Brumel's masterpiece did not inaugurate a fashion for massive compositions; but it did quickly establish a formidable reputation for itself, admired throughout central Europe in the 16th century as an experiment which could not easily be repeated.
Brumel's only surviving set of Lamentations, one of the most beautiful in the repertory, is also one of the most sombre, building up a rare mood of desolation by low scoring and slow harmonic movement.

 Venetian School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Members of the conservative branch tended to follow the style of Franco-Flemish polyphony, and included Cipriano de Rore, Zarlino, and Claudio Merulo; members of the progressive group included Donato, Giovanni Croce, and later Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli.
Gioseffo Zarlino, one of the most influential writers on music of the age, called Willaert "the new Pythagoras," and Willaert's influence was profound, not only as a composer but as a teacher, since most of the Venetians who followed studied with him.
Friction between the two groups came to a head in 1569 with a dramatic, public fight between Donato and Zarlino during the Feast of St. Mark.

 Mensural notation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mensural notation is most closely associated with the successive periods of the late medieval Ars nova and the Franco-Flemish or Dutch school of Renaissance music.
Mensural notation was the first system in the development of European music that systematically used individual note shapes to denote temporal durations.
The most significant difference between Mensural and modern notation in the area of pitch is the use of musica ficta: while some accidentals were written out, most routine chromatic alterations were not notated and left to be supplied by the performer.

 History of music - Music Encyclopedia
The style of the Burgundian composers, as the first generation of the Franco-Flemish school is known, was at first a reaction against the excessive complexity and mannered style of the late 14th century ars subtilior, and contained clear, singable melody and balanced polyphony in all voices.
By the middle of the 15th century, composers and singers from the Low Countries and adjacent areas began to overspread Europe, moving especially into Italy where they were employed by the papal chapel and the aristocratic patrons of the arts, such as the Medici, the Este family in Ferrara, and the Sforza family in Milan.
Early music is a general term used to describe music in the European classical tradition from after the fall of the Roman Empire, in 476 CE, until the end of the Baroque era in the middle of the 18th century.

It did not survive the Franco-Flemish Renaissance; the use of the madrigal form by Landini and other composers of his era is not connected to the flowering of that genre in the 16th century.
Landini's life and interests reflect the early humanist movement, and indeed some accounts of the Renaissance place the origin of that phenomenon in his time and place, with the school of the painter Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337).
