A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Tromboncino, Bartholomeus

TROMBONCINO, Bartholomeus, a fertile composer of Frottole—the popular songs of that day—belonged to Verona, and was probably born in the latter half of the 15th century, since his works are contained in publications dating from 1504 to 1510. The lists given in Eitner's 'Bibliographie,' pp. 879–882, contain 107 of these compositions to secular, and 2 to sacred words, all for 4 voices, as well as 9 Lamentations and one Benedictus for 3 voices.
