Description:
The Frenchman Josquin des Près was one of the most revered composers of the Renaissance and his style serves as a bridge between Medieval and Renaissance musical practice. Josquin spent the bulk of his career attached to various courts and chapels in France and Italy - this six-voice motet was likely composed during his employment by the Papal Chapel (1485-94). The arrangement is scored for 4 C flutes, alto & bass, and features a pair of canonical duets between bass & alto, and 1st & 2nd flutes. Total performance time: 4 minutes, 40 seconds.
