In one of this publications (Jardin Musical - Musical Garden, published by Hubert Waelrant and Jean de Laet in Antwerp in 1556) he is introduced as Maistre de la Chapelle de la Reyne de France - Chapel master of the queen of France, probably not Cathérine de Médici, but the widow of King Francis I, Eleanora, sister of Charles V. She moved to Brussels to live with her sister after her husband's death. Being a Catholic composer Cauléry never used the traditional Genevan melodies when composing on protestant texts.
