description
What we know about Jakobus Vaet – Flemish composer of the latter half of the 16th century – is sadly lacking. Unsure of his exact year of birth, we first come across him as a 13-year-old, when he entered his local choir; clearly he was a precocious talent, as the church kept him on until his voice broke four years later. By the time Vaet remerged in 1550, he held the prestigious post of tenor in the chapel choir of Charles V, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. His royal connections were set to continue, as he moved to Vienna some years later to serve as Kapellmeister to the Archduke Maximilian of Austria, soon to become emperor himself. Vaet spent the next fifteen years until his untimely death at the age of 37 composing a great deal; what remains of his works fills several volumes, including the sacred music featured on this 4CD set.
