Petrus de Domarto

about

Petrus de Domarto (fl. c. 1445 – 1455) was a Franco-Flemish composer of the Renaissance. He was a contemporary and probable acquaintance of Ockeghem, and was the composer of at least one of the first unified mass cycles to be written in continental Europe. Domarto's life is poorly documented. He was listed as a singer at the Church of our Lady in Antwerp in 1449, five years after Ockeghem was known to be there, and there is evidence he was in Tournai in 1451. He had a high reputation (which makes the lack of documentation on his life curious), but even so was passed over for a post as master of the choirboys (in favor of Paulus Iuvenis). No other documentation on his life has yet come to light. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
