Johannes Brassart

(c.1405 - ?)

Franco-Flemish composer. A priest in Liège until 1431, in which year he spent a few months in Rome as a Papal singer, he was employed by the Emperor Sigismund from 1434-43. His sacred music -- eight Introits, nine 3-part Mass movements and twelve 3- and 4-part motets -- is partly found in the Trent Codices and Aosta MS, and includes some attractive pieces, such as O flos fragrans with ornamented upper parts that recall Dunstable.
