about
Arcangelo Lori (also known as Arcangelo del Leuto) was a seventeenth-century Roman lutenist/archlute player and organist, active in the rich musical ecosystem of Baroque Rome. Documentary sources place him in the orbit of leading institutions including San Luigi dei Francesi, and modern scholarship frequently lists him among the sought-after instrumentalists who served churches and confraternities. Only a small amount of music is securely tied to his name today: a cantata attributed to him survives in a seventeenth-century manuscript compilation, while an instrumental Toccata is linked to him in the lute manuscript tradition but with an explicitly uncertain attribution. He died in Rome in January 1679. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
