16th centuryflemishfranco-flemishflemish composers
Antoine de Févin (c. 1470 – late 1511 or early 1512) was a French composer of the Renaissance. He was active at the same time as Josquin Desprez, and shares many traits with his more famous contemporary. Févin was most likely born in Arras, the son of an alderman. His brother Robert de Févin was also a composer. Most likely, Antoine left Arras in the late 1480s, though there is no evidence that he went to Italy, the most common destination for Franco-Flemish composers of the time. <a href="http
