Expressions Definition
Basilica della Santissima Annunziata di Firenze The Basilica della Santissima Annunziata (Basilica of the Most Holy Annunciation) is a Roman Catholic minor basilica in Florence and the mother church of the Servite order. It is located at the northeastern side of the Piazza Santissima Annunziata, which was designed by Filippo Brunelleschi. (references)
Basilica di San Lorenzo di Firenze The Basilica di San Lorenzo (Basilica of St Lawrence) is one of the largest churches of Florence, Italy, situated at the centre of the city’s main market district. It was consecrated in 393 and is one of the many churches that claims to be the oldest in Florence. For three hundred years it was the city's cathedral before eventually losing the status to Santa Reparata. It was also the parish church of the Medici family. In 1419, Giovanni di Bicci de' Medici offered to finance a new church to replace the Romanesque building. Brunelleschi was commissioned to design it. The Medicis gave large amounts of money, but to this day nobody has financed a façade (although Michelangelo designed one). The campanile dates from 1740. (references)
Basilica di Santa Croce di Firenze The Basilica di Santa Croce (Basilica of the Holy Cross) is the principal Franciscan church of Florence, Italy, and a minor basilica of the Roman Catholic Church. It is situated on the Piazza Santa Croce, to the east of the Duomo. (references)

Lorenzo da Firenze Lorenzo da Firenze (Magister Laurentius de Florentia, Masini) (d. December 1372 or January 1373) was an Italian composer and music teacher of the trecento. He was closely associated with Francesco Landini in Florence, and was one of the composers of the period known as the Italian ars nova. (references)
Paolo da Firenze Paolo da Firenze (Paolo Tenorista, "Magister Dominus Paulas Abbas de Florentia") (c. 1355 - after September 20, 1436) was an Italian composer and music theorist of the late 14th and early 15th centuries, the transition from the musical Medieval era to the Renaissance. More surviving music of the Italian ars nova is attributable to Paolo than to any other composer except for Francesco Landini. (references)
San Felice di Firenze The Chiesa di San Felice (Church of St Felix) is located on the south bank of the River Arno in Florence, Italy, just west of the Pitti Palace. It is predominantly Gothic, but has a Renaissance façade by Michelozzo, added in 1457. Over the high altar is a large Crucifix attributed to Giotto or his school. (references)
Santa Felicita di Firenze The Chiesa di Santa Felicita (Church of St Felicity) is probably the oldest church in Florence after San Lorenzo. In the 2nd century, Syrian Greek merchants settled in the area south of the Arno and are thought to have brought Christianity to the region. The first church on the site was probably built in the late 4th century or early 5th century and was dedicated to Saint Felicity, the slave who was martyred with Perpetua at Carthage. A new church was built in the 11th century and the current church largely dates from 1736‑1739. (references)
