Title: Missa Pro Defunctis
Composer: Antoine Brumel

Description: The Missa pro defunctis first appeared in a collection of masses released by Andreas de Antiquis in 1516. It must have achieved a certain amount of fame, as it appeared again in another collection, put together by Giacomo Junta in 1522. Brumel's Missa pro defunctis for four voices, a late work, is notable for being the first Requiem to include a polyphonic setting of the Dies Iræ. Each movement is apparently based on a plainchant, but not all can be identified today. The unknown chants are in the Christe, Sanctus and Agnus Dei; the others can be found in the Liber Usualis.
