Several medieval motets have texts praising contemporary musicians. Bernard (?) de Clunys Apollinis eclipsatur honours a company of mid-century French musicians, while Johannes Alanuss (John Aleyns) Sub arturo plebs celebrates a galaxy of English musicians active in the reigns of Edward III and Richard II. Both pieces have two texted parts for solo singers above a textless supporting line derived from plainchant that can be vocalised, sung to the words of the original chant, or played instrumentally. i + 13 pages.
