Abstract
Peter Philips (1560/61-1628) left his homeland and went first to Italy before settling in the Spanish-occupied Netherlands. In 1597 he gained a position at the court of Albert and Isabella at Brussels, where he became the highest-paid organist. John Bull was an exact contemporary who visited the Brussels court in 1601-2, and in 1613 settled permanently in the Spanish Netherlands. Sources with a south Netherlands provenance contain music by these and other English composers. In this chapter, I assess the extent of English influence on keyboard music of the region, and conversely the extent to which English composers adapted their music for Netherlands taste.
