Ugolino of Forlì (Italian: Ugolino da Forlì) or Ugolino of Orvieto (Italian: Ugolino da Orvieto; c. 1380 – c. 23–31 January 1452) was an Italian music theorist and composer of early Renaissance music.
Life and career
Ugolino was born in Forlì, but was named Urbevetano (of Orvieto) because his father, Francesco, was from Orvieto. He died at Ferrara.
