Joan Brudieu

about

Brudieu was born circa 1520 in Limoges. Nothing is known of his childhood and his musical training. He was chapel master in the Seu d'Urgell Cathedral from 1534 to 1539 and from 1545 to 1577, and he was ordained as a priest in 1543. Beginning in 1577, he began to travel, and he relocated in 1585 to Barcelona, where he published his madrigals. The next year he obtained an important eclesiastical appointment. Finally, he died in Barcelona in 1591. His 16 madrigals show us his preferences in the use of disonances, his style being less strict than that of Victoria's compositions. Some of them are written on texts of the Valencian poet of the 15th Century, Ausiàs March. Additionally, Brudieu is the author of a Requiem Mass for four voices, preserved in manuscript.
