Inviolata, integra et casta es Maria |

|
Remarks: |
A setting of a traditional
plainsong melody that could be called
the quintessential work of Josquin's middle maturity.
The motet combines
a rigorous technical device – in this case a Gregorian
melody treated in canon in two inner voices – with
the utmost boldness of invention in the three accompanying
voices. | |
