Tielman Susato

Tielman Susato was an important Renaissance Musician, and composed a lot of Renaissance Dance music and other secular music. Many of his published works are arrangements of pieces by other musicians -- the laws of copyright were fairly flimsy in the Renaissance and the printing press allowed fairly wide distribution of works fairly quickly.

There are many available recordings of Susato's work, especially by specialist early music publishers such as Naxos.
