Michelangelo (1575 – 1631) was the youngest son of Vincenzo Galilei (who was a lutenist, composer, bass singer and music theorist in Pisa and Firenze), but also the younger brother of the famous astronomer and physicist Galileo Galilei. Like father both brothers played the lute but Michelangelo was the most talented (on the lute 😉 ).

(from IL Primo Libro d’intavolatura di livto di Michelangelo Galilei, 1620)
