La Hèle (or La Helle), Georges de (1547-1586)

Flemish composer. He wrote Masses, motets, and chansons; some of his works were destroyed in a fire in Madrid, Spain, in 1734.

He was a chorister at the royal chapel in Madrid in his youth. In 1578 he was choirmaster at Tournai Cathedral, but was probably back in Spain by 1580. He won two prizes at the Puy de Musique at Evreux in 1576.
