| ARTICLES RELATED TO Life |  |  |  | Life: Encyclopedia II - Claudio Merulo - LifeLittle is known about his early life except that he studied in Correggio with Tuttovale Menon, a famous madrigalist who worked also by Ferrara's court, and Girolamo Donato, an organist. The first mention of his name, after the record of his baptism, is in a legal deposition for Antonio Zantani, in Venice in 1555: therefore, Merulo was close to important names of Venetian society before his employment in Brescia, at Duomo Vecchio, as organist.

|  |  |  | Life: Encyclopedia II - Conrad Paumann - LifeHe was born in Nuremberg to a family of craftsmen.

Being as rebellious as he was talented, he left what was probably a stifling environment, and went secretly to Munich in 1450, where he was immediately employed by Duke Albrecht III as court organist, who also gave him a house. Munich was officially his home for the remainder of his life, a ...
