Agostino Agostini

Agostino Agostini (died 20 September 1569) was a Renaissance era singer, composer and priest of Ferrara mostly active in the 1540s. He was a mansionary chaplain at the San Giorgio Cathedral in Ferrera, and his illegitimate son (sometimes listed as his nephew) was composer Lodovico Agostini, noted for publications of enigmatic canons.[1][2]

It has been suggested that don Ludovico Agostini (1534-1590) was probably the nephew of Agostino.[3]
