Antoine Busnoys (1 gen 1430 anni – 1 gen 1492 anni)

Descrizione:

French composer and poet of the early Renaissance. He is considered the leading figure of the Burgundian School following the death of Du Fay (though he is not considered one of the three central composers of this school).

Busnoys may have studied with Ockeghem. He is the earliest composer for whom autograph manuscripts survive. Both composers wrote music that demonstrate highly organized
technical prowess in composition.

In Busnoys’s Missa L’Homme armé, some sections have places where the tenor
is absent. The composer uses brief imitative entrances known as “pervading imitation.” Busnoys’s Missa L’Homme armé betrays a desire to tie the work closely to the
Order of the Golden Fleece.
