Biography
Antonio Stringari
Real name: Antonio Stringari
(fl 1505–14). Italian composer. His name indicates that he must have been born in or near Padua, and he probably worked in his native area. Although he is known as the author of only 12 frottolas, all published by Petrucci between 1505 and 1514, Stringari was a highly original composer whose works bear more interest than their small number would suggest.
