Taverner's lively Mass, based on a popular song is the cur a programm of Renaissance works all based on the m usic of other composers. Josquin's gorgeous motet based on the plainsong ‘Ave Maria Virgo Serena’. The song ‘Fortuna desperata’, attributed to Busnois, in arrangements by Agricola and Senfl. Two versions of Heinrich Isaac’s sublime ‘Innsbruck’. Josquin’s famous ‘Mille regrets’ and pieces based upon it by Navaez and Gombert. And a glorious Magnificat by Clemens using the tunes of no less than six popular songs of the day.
