The life of Giovanni Gabrieli
It is not known when Giovanni Gabrieli was born. ... (Morell, 1999)
It would be impossible to write about the life of Giovanni Gabrieli without including some information about his uncle Andrea Gabrieli. Andrea was Giovannis earliest musical tutor and seems to have"adopted" Giovanni. ... It was in this Venetian musical bloom, that Andrea was tutoring young Giovanni.Around 1575 , Giovanni, like his uncle before, went to the Bavarian court and was working under Orlando di Lasso. ... 9) Andrea had known Lasso in Munich and it is possible that this connection helped Giovanni gain employment at the court. ... Given the musical conditions there, the trip was probably as beneficial for Giovanni as it was for Andrea years earlier. Giovanni left Munich after the death of his patron, Duke Albrecht, in 1579. ... Andrea was able to have Giovanni fill the post until the competition which was on January 1st, 1585. Not surprisingly, Giovanni won and now uncle and nephew were organists at the church of the patron saint of Venice. ... Giovanni held his post until his death in 1612.
Also in 1585, Giovanni was appointed to the organist post at the Scuola Grande di San Rocco a religious confraternity.
