Major selections on this program are devoted to Thomas Crequillon (1480/1500-1557), Gombert's successor in Spain. Clemens non Papa (born Jacques Clément) is an uncharacteristic French representative in this series, but clearly shows a close connection with Gombert and Crequillon.

Note that on track #22, Sanctus is listed on the package, but does not appear.
