Alessandro Orologio

tr, 1550-1633 IT
Musician / Composer

Alessandro Orologio (also Alexander Horologius) (c. 1550–1633) was an Italian composer and instrumentalist, who lived in German lands.Orologio's first appearance on record is as a trumpeter in the court of Rudolf II at Prague around 1580. He remained there until 1613, and was named vice-kapellmeister in 1603, though he also traveled widely. In a 1594 visit to Kassel, he met famed lutenist John Dowland. His propensity for travel resulted in the mistaken impression (first proposed by Richard Eitner) that there were two Alessandro Orologios. After 1613 Orologio received a pension in Prague, and continued to work at Steyr and Garsten.
