===Secular Music===

Josquin's secular music comprises three settings of Italian texts and numerous chansons. One of the earliest, ''Cela sans plus'', typifies his observance of the formes fixes and the influences of the Burgundian style of Busnois and Ockeghem. Later works, such as'' Mille regretz'', are less canonic, the clear articulation of line and points of imitation achieved by a carefull balanced hierarchy of cadences. Some, like ''Si j'ay perdu mon ami'', look forward to the popular 'Parisian' chanson of [[Jannequin]]. One of Josquin's most famous pieces was a lament on the death of his friend and mentor, Johannes Ockeghem: ''Deploration sur la mort d'Ockeghem''. In this remarkable piece, Josquin deliberately composes the first verse in an archaic style, and then in the second verse, changes htis to an innovative setting in which he calls upon all his contemporaries to mourn for the loss of their repected father figure.
