Angelo Notari

Angelo Notari (1566–1663) was an Italian composer born in Padua and trained in Venice, who spent most of his career in England. From 1610 he served Henry, Prince of Wales, and from 1618 Prince Charles, later King Charles I, as a singer and lutenist.

His 1613 collection Prime musiche nuove, containing monodies and canzonettas, brought the latest Italian monodic style to the English court. He died in London in December 1663, aged about ninety-seven.
