Attribution

The shorter C14a, whose 3 component motets (M071, M072 and M074) are concordant with motets in the present cycle, is attr. to "Loyset" in I-Mfd 1, index. Therefore, C14b has been unanimously attr. to Compère (e.g. see FINSCHER 1964, 92)

Description

The cycle belongs to the “core” group of motetti missales. It consists of eight motets, all provided with “loco” rubrics. The texts are compilations from different sources, mostly Marian sequences and rhymed prayers. The rubric “Galeazescha” points to a direct (but as yet not clarified) connection with Duke Galeazzo Sforza.

Notes

See also the cognate shorter cycle C14a.

GASSER 2001, 304-305, considers the cycle to consist of seven motets, instead of eight: see the notes to M075 and M076.

The version of M074 in I-Mfd 3 is longer than the one in I-Mfd 1.
