• Source: Missa Mi-mi

      • The Missa mi" target="_blank">Mi-mi" target="_blank">mi is a musical setting of the Ordinary of the Mass by Johannes Ockeghem. It is a motto mass based on one of Ockeghem's own chansons, "Presque transi." The mass contains several motives and ideas from this chanson beyond just the head-motive.


      Music


      The mass is for four voices, and is in the usual parts:

      Kyrie
      Gloria
      Credo
      Sanctus
      Agnus Dei


      Source and Naming


      The most authoritative source for this mass is the Chigi codex. Here, the mass appears as 'mi" target="_blank">Mi-mi" target="_blank">mi.' Other early sources are generally untitled, or it is sometimes referred to as "Missa Quarti toni" ( or "Mass in Mode 4"). There has been much debate about what the solmization designation of 'mi" target="_blank">Mi-mi" target="_blank">mi' refers too, and whether this title was given by Ockeghem. Earlier scholars generally assumed that 'mi" target="_blank">Mi-mi" target="_blank">mi' referred to the opening bass motive, which would involve the solmization syllables 'mi" target="_blank">mi' and 'mi" target="_blank">mi' in the normal and soft hexachord, respectively. Rebecca Stewart points out that using the hard hexachord is most likely the way a Renaissance singer would approach this interval, which would avoid the need for mutation. Ross W. Duffin has more recently proposed that 'mi" target="_blank">Mi-mi" target="_blank">mi' is possibly another way to refer to Mode 4 - through defining the solmization of the outer limits of the two hexachords used in the mode.
