Most composers were not rich due to several factors, including the unpredictable nature of patronage, which relied heavily on the support of the aristocracy and churches that could fluctuate based on economic conditions. Additionally, many composers were not able to capitalize on their works through copyright protections, as these were not well-established until the 19th century. The market for music was also limited, with many compositions performed only locally and not widely disseminated. Lastly, the costs of living and supporting a family often outweighed their earnings from compositions and performances.
Composers often worked for royalty, as Mozart did, and were quite rich and high in society as a result. Italian composers tended to be the most respected at this time. Mozart, however, was an exception to this rule. He lost most of his money through various debts and wasn't given much in the first place due to his humble background. He was also Austrian, and therefore other composers tended to discriminate against him.
Most of these composers are from America or Europe. They include Henry Filmore, John Heed, Karl King, and one of the most famous composers, John Philip Sousa.
The most important French composers of the ars antiqua music were Léonin and Pérotin.
beethoven and schumann, i think.
Gabrieli
