Among the masses, the Missa Prolationem is outstanding and it's complexities legendary. The Requiem Mass is the earliest polyphonic work of its kind to have survived.

Ergone conticuit is a beautiful elegy in memory of Ockeghem, with words by Erasmus and music by Johannes Lupi.  Lupi's treatment of Erasmus' poignant words is a worthy tribute to the great composer, fashioned in a manner belonging very much to it's own time, not his. Lupi's motet is both a tribute and an up-date.
