Tielman Susato (ca. 1500 - ca. 1561-4) was a composer, arranger, and publisher of music. At various times he was also a calligrapher, and trumpeter, both at Antwerp Cathedral. He was the major music publisher in the Low Countries from 1543 - 1561, publishing music of composers such as Crecquillon, Josquin Desprez, Handl, Clement Jannequin, Clemens non Papa, and Lassus. His editions include 19 books of motets, 3 books of masses, 25 books of chansons, and 11 Musyck boexken, from the third of which, alderhande Danserye (1551) a collection of popular dance tunes arranged by Susato, is taken the present work, The Battle Pavane. This arrangement for concert band by Bob Margolis closely follows Susato's original four-part arrangement.
