England in the fifteenth century was the cradle of much that would have a profound
impact on European music for the next several hundred years. Perhaps the greatest
such development was the cyclic cantus firmus Mass, and scholarly attention has therefore
often been drawn to identifying potentially English examples within the many anonymous
Mass cycles that survive in continental sources. Nonetheless, to understand English
music in this period is to understand it within a changing nexus of two-way cultural
exchange with the continent, and the genre of the Mass cycle is very much at the forefront
of this. Indeed, the question of `what is English' cannot truly be answered without
also answering the question of `what is continental'. This book seeks, initially,
to answer both of these questions. Perhaps more importantly, it argues that a number
of the works that have induced the most scholarly debate are best seen through the
lens of intensive and long-term cultural exchange and that the great binary divide
of provenance can, in many cases, productively be broken down. A great many of these
works, though often written on the continent, can, it seems, only be understood in
relation to English practice - a practice which has had, and will continue to have,
major importance in the ongoing history of European Art Music
