BRUMEL, ANTOINE

(1460, Chartres?, France – after 1520, n.p.)

   Maestro di cappella at Ferrera (1506–1510), his fame equaled that of his contemporary Josquin in his lifetime. He wrote mostly sacred music, including motets, Magnificats, and 15 masses that appear frequently in theoretical works as exemplary of their time. His mass {}Et Ecce Terrae Motus is set for 12 voices. (at)
