Full biography Joachim van den Hove

Joachim van den Hove (1567-1620) was a Flemish/Dutch composer and lutenist , known for his works for lute solo and for lute and voice. He was born in Antwerp and spent most of his life in the Netherlands, where he held various positions at courts and in the church.

Van den Hove's compositions are considered to be representative of the Dutch school of lute music, which was known for its emphasis on melody and counterpoint rather than virtuosity. He wrote many arrangements for lute of Italian and French works , as well as his own original compositions.

Many of van den Hove's works were published posthumously in collections, including his "Secrets for Lute" (1612) and "Delitiae Musice" (1618). His music reflects the influence of French and Italian styles, and his use of complex harmonies and chromaticism was ahead of his time.

Overall, Joachim van den Hove was a significant figure in the development of lute music in the Netherlands during the Renaissance era. Today, his works continue to be studied and performed by lutenists and early music enthusiasts around the world.
