During his lifetime he was, at various times, active in Rome, Venice, Brussels, and Paris. Brussels was the capital of the Spanish Netherlands at the time, and the Italian musician was in the employment of Archduke Albert of Austria and Archduchess Isabella, the nephew of Philip II and half-sister of Philip III respectively. Archduke Albert died in 1621 so it is presumed that Foscarini was in Brussels sometime before that date.
