This 4-part Ave Maria of Josquin Des Prez extremely popular in the sixteenth century, through its then "new" more "open" style (fewer melismas, parts set with just two voices). Even today, it is considered one of the most nearly perfect compositions of its era. It was so popular that an anonymous composer, probably working after Josquin's death, circulated a version with two new added voices (Ave Maria a 4 plus 2).
