Notes:

Cover title differs slightly.

All pieces are from the Antico 1520 edition of double canons on chanson or motet texts, many based on traditional melodies, of which only two parts were printed, the other two being deduced from them. The present edition gives all four parts, completely texted.

Suggested instrumentation: voices ATTB; crumhorns SATB; recorders ATTB (SATB); viols TrTTB; cornetto & 3 sackbuts.

French words, also printed as text with English translation (p. 5).
