At a previous Christmas workshop we studied the motet Virgo Prudentissima by Heinrich Isaac c.1450-1517 A very substantial 6-part motet based on a cantus firmus that Isaac also used for a mass. There are some extended duets and some interpolated homophonic sections in praise of the Emperor Maximillian at whose court Isaac worked.
