  Johannes Ciconia - Wikipedia
Johannes Ciconia (1370 -1411) was een Belgisch componist uit de periode van de Middeleeuwen.
Johannes Ciconia werd vroeger vaak verward met zijn gelijknamige vader, die in 1335 in Luik werd geboren.
Ciconia wordt gezien als één van de belangrijke kunstenaars uit de Ars Subtilior, de overgangstijd van de Franse stijlperiode de Ars Nova naar de muzikaal en compositorisch meer ontwikkelde periode van de Polyfonie.

 Homage to Johannes Ciconia (ca. 1370-1412)
By contrast, Ciconia's music was known during his lifetime, not only in northern Italy but in France, Germany, and as far afield as Poland.
Ciconia's music has a simple rhythmic drive with a great deal of forward propulsion, melodic lines of uncommon elegance, a good deal of motivic imitation and repetition, and a clear harmonic language that often yields a radiant sonority of extraordinary beauty.
Beautiful as Matteo's music is, it is Ciconia's art to which the generation of the early fifteenth century composers owes much of their charm and beauty of style.

Ciconia was a composer from Liège in modern day Belgium who emigrated to Padua near the beginning of the fifteenth century.
David Fallow’s article, "Ciconia padre e figlio," first put forth the possibility that a choirboy mentioned in a 1385 Liège document named Johannes Ciconia is more likely the composer Ciconia.
Ciconia’s earlier works, such as Sus unne fontaine, seem to be more rhythmically complex than his later, Italian texted works.

 Liber unUsualis
The ruler of Milan during Ciconia’s time was Giangaleazzo Visconti, a very powerful and cruel man. Giangaleazzo was not afraid to use whatever means possible to retain control of and expand the region that he ruled, including imprisonment, torture, and murder of his rivals.
In 1395, Antonello composed a complex and ornate madrigal in honor of Giangaleazzo’s coronation as Duke of Milan, Del glorioso titolo, and the ballata Più chiar che’l sol in honor of the 1399 wedding of Giangaleazzo’s niece and ward, Lucia.
Meanwhile, Ciconia composed Con lagreme bagnandome with a text attributed to the Venitian poet, Leonardo Giustiniani (c.1383-1446), in private honor of the death of Francesco Novello.

 FORTHCOMING IN THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONFERENCE ON RENAISSANCE MUSIC, LISBON AND ÉVORA, MAY 2003
Ciconia’s employer at the turn of the century, Cardinal d'Alençon, was a sympathizer of Boniface IX, and Zacara da Teramo, whose compositions appear with Ciconia’s in many manuscripts, was singer and papal secretary to Boniface IX.
Most interesting is Ciconia’s emphasis in the treatise on the singing of chant and of improvised polyphony, not of mensural polyphony, which is nowhere described in the Cathedral’s ordinal.
Ciconia’s activities at Padua Cathedral (described in the ordinal and statutes of the Cathedral) included the supervision of chant and instruction of boys, so it is plausible that he intended his treatise for Cathedral musicians, if not boys.

 Arnold de Lantins - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is not known for certain if Arnold de Lantins was a relative of Hugo de Lantins, a composer active at the same time, but since their works often appear together in collections and they seem to have been in the same geographical regions, it is not unlikely.
Arnold's music was held in high regard, and appears alongside that of Dufay, Gilles Binchois and Johannes Ciconia in contemporary manuscript collections.
He also wrote at least one complete mass, as well as several parts of a composite mass (the remaining portions were written, not necessarily at the same time, by Ciconia).

 c5Program-composer
Beneath the highly rhythmicized surface lies the source of the repertoire: a responsory chant in the bass drawn out to very great lengths--a cantus firmus upon which the music of the other two voices is founded.
Johannes Ciconia is one of the earliest figures in the long series of Flemish composers that forms the backbone of Capella Alamire's repertoire.
In the Gloria, occasional imitative passages appear, as in the passage at "Domine Deus." Yet overall, Ciconia's music is written with considerable emphasis on the harmonic perspective: clear phrasing and frequent cadences break up the linear flow.

Comme certains de ses contemporains, Johannes Ciconia maîtrise les deux types de notation en usage aux confins du XIVe et du XVe siècle : la notation française et la notation italienne, préférant adopter la première plutôt que la seconde.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM: The small repertoire of surviving medieval Italian praise songs, or Laude, was first brought to modern attention in the late 19th century by the German scholar Friedrich Ludwig.
In other instances, such as the highly ornate soloistic chants 'Nova Stella' and 'Sovrana ne sembianti,' we opt for an unmeasured delivery that allows the soloists to sing with a maximum amount of rhetorical freedom.
To complement our laude we have chosen a number of pieces of late fourteenth and early fifteenth century 'ars subtilior' polyphony by Johannes Ciconia, Matteo da Perugia, and their anonymous compatriots.

In biographical accounts father and son have generally been treated as one person.
The sacred works and occasional pieces with Latin text include ten Mass movements (Glorias and Credos, some paired), eight motets, and two Latin contrafacta.
These are only the works of undoubted authenticity; there exist a few other compositions in nearly every category that may be by Ciconia.

The cultivation of the style spread from the principal musical centers across Italy; its forms depended in large part on the requirements of patronage.
Later equal-discantus motets, after 1425, such as "Summus secretarius" by Johannes Brassart, reach a new maturity by employing the style in individual ways with respect to melody and structure.
Two early antecedents date from the time of the Council of Pisa, including Johannes Ciconia's "O petre christi discipule." The florid motet style probably developed from the discant Mass style in Italy.

It was this more pungent and highly evocative voice which filled the Hall as the Quartet performed the Johannes Ciconia work, followed by a few instrumental dances by Tielmann Susato and the Alla Battaglia by Heinrich Isaac.
A number of instruments were used, including a 1½-metre monster which elicited a "wow" of awe from the audience.
