Claude Goudimel
[ Life | Photo Gallery | Home Page] |
 |
French composer, music publisher and editor: the suggestion that he was Palestrina's teacher has long been discounted. Goudimel's Latin works are extremely concise and concentrated, and his numerous chansons, spiritual as well as secular, are little known but well worth attention. He was a victim of the St. Bartholomew's Day massacres that decimated the Huguenot population of Lyon in 1572.
