Graz was the gateway for Italian music much earlier than other residences north of the Alps including Vienna. Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli had contacts to the archdukes and trained their musicians like Giovanni Priuli, Giovanni Valentini and Alessandro Tadei, who later worked also at the imperial court in Vienna. Quite a number of other musicians — e. g. Georg Poss — were hired in Venice for the Graz court, and the polychoral style was predominant also with composers working at other courts, at monasteries and churches like e. g. Sebastian Ertel.
