The Bassano family of musicians who came to England to serve Henry VIIIl. Five Bassanos are listed at the funeral of Henry VIII in 1547. At the coronation of Elizabeth in 1558 their number had increased to six, with the same number present at her funeral in 1603. At that time, the fabulous Renaissance courts of the Medici were winding down and the artists and musicians of those courts were seeking work elsewhere.
