Giovanni Martino Cesare (fl.1610-1627) was a relatively obscure figure working in Munich and apparently of Italian origin. The present collection was published in 1621, and combines both vocal psalms and purely instrumental works. The style is typical of the place & time, although the instrumental scoring is fairly advanced.
