The 'Missa L’homme armé super voces musicales' is the first of two settings of the ordinary of the mass by Josquin Desprez, using the famous 'L’homme armé' tune as their cantus firmus source material. The earliest source containing the mass is the Vatican manuscript CS 197 (ca. 1492-1495) and our work is based on that score. In Rome inside the Papal circle instruments were almost forbidden. However, the earliest print of masses, in Petrucci’s Misse Josquin of 1502, points to a wider dissemination. The mass was probably performed not only in Rome, but also in quite different places and at different times, and was also adapted for instruments.
