Biography
NG2: Hauville, Antoine de
(fl c1553–c1572). French composer. In 1560 he published ten sacred chansons under the title La lyre chrestienne avec la monomachie de David & Goliath, & plusieurs autres chansons spirituelles (Lyons, 1560). Six of the texts were by Guillaume Guéroult, who also wrote the dedicatory epistle to Marguerite of Savoy, explaining that the new collection was prompted by the success of his Susanne un jour. Two duet settings of graces by Clément Marot attributed to ‘A. Hauville’ were published in Richard Crassot's collection of four-voice psalms (Lyons, 1564), and two secular chansons for four and five voices are attributed simply to ‘Hauville’ in anthologies published at Paris (RISM 155320 and 15722, the latter ed. in SCC, x, 1994). He may also be identifiable with or related to the ‘Adriano Hauville’ or ‘Hawil’ who published two five-voice madrigals in a Venetian collection (157015) and a four-voice mass in a Milanese print (15884).
