Paolo Virchi
Paolo Virchi (also known as Targhetta; 1551 – 2 May 1610) was an Italian composer and instrumentalist. He was born in Brescia and his father was Girolamo Virchi, an instrument maker. He joined the court of Alfonso II d'Este between 1579 and 1580. On the court rolls, he is referred to as a singer, but in his publications he refers to himself as an organist and instrumentalist. He taught members of the court to sing, play the viol, and was one of few musicians at the court to receive a salary raise during his tenure there. Upon the dissolution of the court in 1597, he immediately joined the Gonzaga court in Mantua.

Virchi had several publications based all in Venice, including a book of cittern tablature and many madrigals, which Anthony Newcomb praised as being of equal skill as those of Luca Marenzio.

Luca Marenzio
Luca Marenzio (also Marentio; October 18, 1553 or 1554 – August 22, 1599) was an Italian composer and singer of the late Renaissance.

He was one of the most renowned composers of madrigals, and wrote some of the most famous examples of the form in its late stage of development, prior to its early Baroque transformation by Monteverdi. In all, Marenzio wrote around 500 madrigals, ranging from the lightest to the most serious styles, packed with word-painting, chromaticism, and other characteristics of the late madrigal style.  Marenzio was influential as far away as England, where his earlier, lighter work appeared in 1588 in the Musica Transalpina, the collection that initiated the madrigal craze in that country.

Marenzio worked in the service of several aristocratic Italian families, including the Gonzaga, Este, and Medici, and spent most of his career in Rome.
