Maistre Jhan (c. 1485-1538): Vox de caelis (TTTB) [Rusconi Codex]

The so-called Rusconi Codex (I-Bc Q.19), now kept in the Museo Internazionale e Biblioteca della Musica di Bologna, probably copied c. 1518 for the Cathedral of Padua, contains 95 works, mostly motets and a few masses (some of them unica) and, according to Robert Nosow, was copied by one of its most represented composers, a certain Renaldo (probably Petrus de Renaldis, died in 1521). It is one of the most important music manuscripts in northern Italy in the first third of the 16th century. 

We are publishing a selection of over 60 works by Italian and French composers such as Jean Mouton, Renaldo, Jacquet de Mantua, Costanzo Festa, Lupus, Pierre Moulu, Maistre Jhan and others.

Vox de caelis is four-voice motet by the French composer Maistre Jhan (c. 1485-1538). It is scored for four male voices (TTTB) and dedicated to St. Catherine.
