About Pierre de Villiers
Pierre de Villiers was a French composer, active in Lyon in the second quarter of the 16th century . His first name "Pierre" remains uncertain. Even if François Lesure indicates a namesake canon of the cathedral of Cambrai in 1516, the identity of the two people is not proven. Dobbins has discussed elsewhere the possibility that Pierre (?) de Villiers was the same as Hubert-Philippe de Villiers , writer and translator from Italian, secretary to Henry I of Bourbon -Condé
