Biography

Antonio de Cabezón was a Spanish composer and organist of the Renaissance; the decade of his birth can be guessed at. He was blind from early childhood. He traveled widely in Europe (including England) with the king in the years 1548-56 but settled in Madrid when it became the home of the Spanish royal court, remaining there until his death.
