Marc'Antonio Ingegneri was a prominent Italian composer of the late Renaissance period. He was born in Verona around 1535 or 1536, and later moved to Cremona in 1570 where he spent most of his life.

Ingegneri was highly respected in his time and was one of the most important composers of his era. His music compositions were of exceptional quality, and he was regarded as one of the masters of his age, despite not being as well-known as some of his contemporaries like Palestrina and Monteverdi. He wrote music with rich harmonies, and his use of dissonance and counterpoint was also highly regarded.
Ingegneri was a deeply religious man, and he often composed sacred music for the church. He was a maestro di cappella at several churches throughout his career, including the Cathedral of Cremona, where he wrote many of his most memorable compositions. His works include the Missa Laudate Pueri Dominum , Missa Voce Mea A5, and Missa Susanne un Jour A5, among many others.
In addition to being a composer, Ingegneri was also a teacher. He was the teacher of the renowned composer Claudio Monteverdi, who he taught at the Cathedral of Cremona. Ingegneri's influence on Monteverdi's music is evident, and he is said to have had a profound impact on his development as a composer.
Today, Marc'Antonio Ingegneri is regarded as one of the most important composers of the late Renaissance. His music continues to be performed and recorded, demonstrating his lasting impact on the world of classical music.
