Johannes Pullois (numerous variant spellings of his name include Pillays, Pilloys, Pylois, Pyloys, Pyllois, Puilloys, Puylloys, Puyllois) (died 23 August 1478) was a Franco-Flemish composer of the Renaissance, active in both the Low Countries and Italy. He was one of the early generation of composers to carry the Franco-Flemish polyphonic style from its home region in the Netherlands to Italy. He was probably born in Pulle, near Antwerp, but nothing is known about his life until he became ''zangmeester'' (singing master) at the church of Our Lady in Antwerp in 1443. He unsuccessfully auditioned with Philip the Good for the Burgundian court chapel, but was not accepted for a position; he then in 1447 went to Rome, where he sang in the papal chapel until 1468. He returned to Antwerp, becoming residential canon at the same church at which he had worked in the 1440s, and he died there in 1478. During his career he was a colleague of both Johannes Philibert and the renowned Johannes Ockeghem. ==Music and influence== One complete cyclic mass has survived, a ''Missa sine nomine'', for three voices; most likely dating from the 1450s, it is one of the earliest cyclic masses to be written on the continent. It shows such influence of English music that it has been mistaken for the work of an anonymous English composer. The mass displays a complex transmission pattern, which has confused its dating and provenance. Pullois also wrote a motet for the Christmas season ''Flos de spina'', which is similar stylistically to works by Ockeghem, and may have been written during his time in Italy. One other motet, ''Victime paschali laudes'', and three sacred contrafacta of secular songs have survived. He also wrote 14 secular songs (including the three with contrafactum texts) which appear in various sources from Italy as well as Germany. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Johannes Pullois」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
