Jahrhunderts vorwiegend geistliche Musik, berühmt wurde er aber schon zu Lebzeiten durch seine Balletti, die er 1591 und 1594 veröffentlichte. Die Tänze waren mit ihren homophonen Strukturen und einfachen Harmonien von einer reizvollen Naivität, die so gut ankam, dass sie schon damals in zehn Auflagen im In- und Ausland gedruckt wurden. Robert van Beringen bearbeitete die Sätze Amor Vittorioso, La Sirena, L’Innamorato und L’ardito für eine fünfstimmig variable Besetzung.Il compositore e cantore Giovanni Giacomo Gastoldi è entrato nella storia grazie alla raccolta di Balletti a cinque voci (Venezia, 1591) che conobbe un successo senza eguali. Scritte per cinque voci e strumenti, queste melodie ballate divennero popolari anche all’estero (Germania, Inghilterra), e influenzarono compositori quali Claudio Monteverdi e Thomas Morlez. Robert van Beringen ha arrangiato quattro estratti (Amor Vittorioso, La Sirena, L’Innamorato e L’Ardito) per ensemble a strumentazione variabile (quattro voci).
