Notes

  • [a] An eighteenth-century addition to the sepoltuario of 1596 indicates that the tomb of maestro Francesco had passed to the Opera, but does not indicate when, following a notation in the margins of the original 1596 register, thus suggesting ownership by the opera since at least the Cinquecento.
