Commentary

Tabla: “Dos fantasias en el tercero grado remedando a la primera y segunda parte del motete queramus cum pastoribus”.
Parody fantasia: model cited motet by Mouton. Ward (p.235) sums up the work well: “The fantasia begins like a glosa of Mouton’s popular motet, with many pasos, but changes to a free paraphrase and then to a new music composed with fragments of the model.
1-19 glosa; 20-29 paraphrase; 30-96 free ; 34-36 free adaptation; 52-55 quote with added passing notes.
The free music is non-imit. Polyphony of varied texture from homophony to counterpoint to redobles. Theme 1 = incipit; 2 = imitated favorite theme.
