Barbingant

One-named composer Barbingant is definitely something of the cipher historically; his name shows up in no known sign-up or nonmusical record from his period. Presumably created around 1400, he worked well in central France and could have already been deceased by 1460, about enough time Johannes Ockeghem had written his Missa Au travail suis predicated on Barbingant’s three-voice rondeau of this title. Several authors toward the finish from the fifteenth hundred years determine Barbingant as a significant figure of the time, but they offer relatively few extra details. As well as the three rondeaux related to him — “Au travail suis,” “Esperant que mon bien vendra,” and “L’omme banny de sa plaisance” — and one dance, Der Pfauenschwanz, Barbingant is undoubtedly the author of two public, a three-voice Missa sine nomine, as well as the Missa Terriblement. This is actually the earliest known complete parody mass, predicated on the virelai “Terriblement suis”; Barbingant may have constructed this, as well. At onetime, Barbingant was baffled with composer Jacobus Barbireau, a Dutch composer blessed shortly before Barbingant is normally believed to have got died.
