Hannah French delves into the life and music of the Flemish composer and publisher Tielman Susato who was active in Antwerp in the mid-16th century. Susato initially worked as a calligrapher, but was also employed as a trumpeter, flautist and piper, and in 1543 he founded the first music publishing house using movable music type in the Low Countries. His shop could be found in Antwerp, "At the Sign of the Crumhorn".

Susato was also an accomplished composer. He published several books of his own masses and motets as well as a vast array of instrumental music, especially dances, which remain popular to this day).
