"It is hard to think of a record label having had a more auspicious début or one that so clearly forecast what was to come over the next decade."
David Fallows - GRAMOPHONE (July 1990)

Josquin's motet Benedicta es was used as a model for many works by Renaissance composers. The parody mass Benedicta es shows how resplendently Palestrina could turn Josquin's idiom to his own ends.
