Henry himself was not known for playing any instrument, but in his day, he would have studied music and learned all about various composers and performers. We do know that he loved music and there is some evidence that he wrote a few songs. Further, he was a great patron of the arts, hiring and supporting a number of musicians who played for him and provided entertainment at royal functions.
