Andreas de Silva was a composer, probably of Portuguese origin, who is known mainly from inclusion of five motets in the Medici Codex. Now attributed to de Silva is a madrigal Che sentisti Madonna, misattributed to Verdelot in 1537. Aspects of his compositional style suggest musical training in Spain, France, and northern Italy. He worked under the patronage of the Medici family and was employed by Pope Leo X in Rome, and wrote the motet Gaude felix Florentia for the Pope's coronation.
