Josquin Des Pres: Missa Mater Patris / Noel Bauldeweyn: Missa Da Pacem

'Our project to record all of Josquin's Masses now runs into controversy. One of Josquin's greatest compositions, Missa Mater Patris, is so unusual that some scholars have questioned its authorship.

Having been thought during the 19th century to be the most typical and perfect of all Josquin's Masses, it has recently been shown to be by the little-known Noel Bauldeweyn. Or is it?' Peter Phillips
