Qui ne regrettroit le gentil fevin - Jean Mouton 1459-1522; Antoine de Fevin c. 1470-1522
A déploration (lament) for Antoine de Févin, King Louis XII’s favourite song-composer. The poet Jean Molinet reports that Févin died perhaps in 1511 or 1512, although this report is unconfirmed. Mouton cites melodic motives from Févin’s Fors seulement la mort.
