Missa Prolationum: Agnus dei I & III, Johannes Ockeghem, sung by Quire Cleveland, dir. Ross W. Duffin, at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Akron OH, on Oct. 29, 2017.
The Agnus dei movement from Johannes Ockeghem’s Missa Prolationum is the most complex canon imaginable, since the soprano and alto are in canon with each other at different pitch levels and different speeds. At the same time, the tenor and bass are also in canon, again at different pitch levels, and in meters that are not only different from each other, but different from those of the upper voices as well! The truly amazing thing about Ockeghem’s achievement in this Agnus and, in fact, throughout this mass, is that the listener is hardly aware of the canon – never distracted by the technical achievement of what must rank with Bach’s Musical Offering and Art of Fugue as the most extraordinary canonic masterpieces ever composed.
