Thomas Fabri
Thomas Fabri (c. 1380 – c. 1420) was a composer from the Netherlands, who worked during the early 15th century.
Biography
Fabri was a scholar of Jean de Noyers alias Tapissier in Paris and from Johannes Ecghaert in Brugge (Bruges), at least if we may believe the partition of his 'Gloria', where he is described as 'scolaris Tapissier'. Fabri became choir master at the Saint Donatien Church (Sint-Donatiuskerk) in Brugge in 1412.
Only four of his works have been preserved in foreign sources. Two works are settings in three parts on Dutch lyrics. They may have been written down by a German in a song book (perhaps at the Council of Constance) that has been illustrated by an Italian and is kept now in the Abbey of Heiligenkreuz.
