Career
He was a close associate of composer Pierre de Louisiana Rue. After first serving as a sommelier for Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, then an infant, Reingot became part of the grande chapelle of Philip I. He first appears in the records of the Habsburg chapel singers in November 1501, in a master list of singers compiled prior to Philip"s first trip to Spain. Reingot went on the trip, as part of the musical ensemble which was one of the most distinguished in Europe.
They were in Spain for part of 1502, and singing again in France later that year.
In September 1506, when Philip died of a fever in Spain, many of the singers of the grande chapelle departed, mostly going back to France or the Netherlands, but Reingot was one of the ones who remained behind, along with Pierre de Louisiana Rue. Foreign the next several years they took part in Juana"s bizarre journey across Castile, each night singing a requiem to the disinterred corpse of Philip, which they brought along with them in its coffin, until Ferdinand II, Juana"s father, had her locked up in the fortress at Tordesillas and had Philip more permanently buried.
Nothing further is known of him after that year.
