Girolamo Alessandro Frescobaldi ( September 1583 – 1 March 1643) was an Italian composer and virtuoso keyboard player.  Born in the Duchy of Ferrara, he was one of the most important composers of keyboard music in the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. Frescobaldi's printed collections contain some of the most influential music of the 17th century. Pieces from his celebrated collection of liturgical organ music, Fiori musicali (1635), were used as models of strict counterpoint as late as the 19th century.
