Biography
Bastiano Chilese
(fl 1608). Italian composer. He was probably related to a family of instrumentalists active in Venice about 1610–20, and in Vienna about 1620–40.
Three pieces, one for five and two for eight instruments, published in Alessandro Raverii’s Canzoni per sonare (Venice, 1608, ed. R.P. Block, Canzon 22 à 5, London, 1970), employ echo effects and ornamental passages.
