[ʒɔskɛ̃ depʁe] (c.1440 – 1521)Josquin is considered to be the central figure of the Franco-Flemish School. He was one of the first composers to relate his music closely to the text.

Stabat Mater dolorosa
The motet-chanson
was a specialized musical form of the Renaissance, developed in Milan during the 1470s and 1480s, which combined aspects of the contemporary motet and chanson.
“The motet (經文頌/polyphonic church songs) was one of the most popular sacred forms during the later Middle Ages, gradually making way for polyphonic settings of the Ordinary of the Mass. The motet was developed in the 13th century in northern France. The plainchant was placed into a strict rhythmic pattern, above which between one and three other lines were placed; these upper parts were each given a new text, resulting in a complex texture in which many different words sounded together.”
Josquin wrote three motet-chansons.
'Que vous madame / In pace' (You madam) had circulated widely by 1490:
