Josquin's Missa "Di Dadi"
Funny you should mention these two in the same email. Decades ago I
attended an early music workshop in Miami where Taruskin was one of
the instructors, and his task of the week was to lead us recorder
players through a sight-reading of a different Josquin mass each
night. He chose masses which he had never heard performed, in the
hopes of finding an undiscovered masterpiece. Needless to say, all of
them were fine music, but we were all blown away by the Missa di
Dadi. This was probably the first performance of this mass since the
16th century, and I'm still in awe of having been one of the first
people in centuries to experience it.
