Born in Bologna, Italy, Adriano Banchieri studied composition and organ and was a member of the Olivetan Order where he lived and worked in its Monasteries. As a founder of the Academia Dei Floridi, his writings on Theory, Figured Bass and Vocal Ornamentation are considered important in early Baroque Music. As an Associate of Monteverdi, Banchieri composed masses, psalm settings, motets, theater works and madrigals.
