Notes: 

note: ‘Benotto’, frequently misread in secondary literature as ‘Benolio’, is surely a reference to the northern singer and composer Benoctus de Francia (Benoit, Benottus, Benedictus Sirede), who was a singing master for the laudesi company of Orsanmichele beginning in 1436, and after 1439 the first chapel master at the Florentine cathedral until he left Florence in 1448; WilsonMM, 84-5; Pamela Starr, NGD, ‘Benoit’.
