born in Bergen, The Netherlands, composed during the Renaissance period
Jacob Obrecht (ca.1450-1505) was a Netherlandish composer of the Renaissance whose fame extended across Europe in his lifetime, but he was overshadowed soon after his death by his contemporary, Josquin Desprez. The core of Obrecht's work is a series of 30 settings of the mass, augmented by numerous motets for 3 and 4 vocal parts, and his style includes the frequent use of vertical chords, anticipating the development of tonal functional harmony. Obrecht's career was mostly centered in Flemish cities, though he was granted employment in Italy, which was cut short when he succumbed to the plague. ~ Blair Sanderson, Rovi
