  Walter Frye - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Most of Frye's music survives in manuscripts from the continent, which has suggested to scholars that he spent much of his time there; however stylistically his music is closer to that of other English composers than to that of the Burgundian School, the most notable contemporary movement on the continent.
Frye's masses, however, were his most historically significant contribution, for they influenced the music of Obrecht and Busnois.
Frye's style in his masses was typical of English music of the period, using full triadic sonorities, and sometimes isorhythmic techniques; he contrasted full-voiced textures with passages for only two voices, which became a characteristic sound of the polyphony of the late 15th and early 16th centuries.

 Music from Brussels 5557
A Kyrie had to be supplied to the Walter Frye Missa Flos Regalis and confusing questions of text-setting had to be worked out for John Plummer's Missa sine nomine; for some of the songs--by John Bedyngham, Frye, and anonymous--performance directions missing from the manuscripts had to be surmised.
We do know that Frye in particular was held in high esteem by his French colleagues, regarded as the pre-eminent exponent of what was called la contenance angloise or "the English personality" as a stylistic influence in music.
Walter Frye's (d.1474) four-part Missa Flos Regalis keeps the listener and the performers on their toes.

Between the work of Frye and John Dunstable (c.1380-1453), this English descant style had an influence on the development of continental music which had not been seen before and was hardly to be seen since.
Frye's motet "Ave Regina" was one of the most widely circulated fifteenth century compositions, with sources in several countries as well as appearances in at least three paintings of the period.

 WALTER FRYE/ The Hilliard Ensemble/
The music of the fifteenth-century Englishman Walter Frye must have been highly regarded in his own time as manuscript copies survive from all over Europe.
In historical terms it is tempting to put Frye between the mediƦval austerity of Dunstable and the more developed counterpoint of Josquin; there is a a richness and a mellifluousness which makes if far more than a "missing link".
The first ten are sacred works-four movements of his Missa Flos Regalis interspersed with other sacred works to follow the outline of the mass, and culminating in two versions of Frye’s exquisite Ave Regina.

Not much is known about the fifteenth century English composer Walter Frye apart from the fact that his music seems to have had a considerable influence on the continent.
The singing is crisp and accurate and plenty of care has been taken to maintain a pure unruffled sound in keeping with Frye''s focused, almost meditational style.
Just as Frye remains unknown apart from brief glimpses through his music, so his motet conjures up the beatific presence of heavenly, unknowable mysteries, in perfect keeping with the religion and church for whom he composed.

 The Wars of the Roses - June 2004
Walter Frye was the most important English composer of his generation.
Frye was certainly one of the most famous composers of his day, and depictions of scores of his motet Ave regina appear in at least three paintings and one altarpiece from Low Countries in this period (an endorsement not afforded any other composer).
This link is further strengthened by the fact that Frye, England's most famous living composer at the time, was employed by Anne's older sister, Anne of Exeter from around 1464 until at least 1472.

Walter Frye was one of the bright lights among composers associated with the Burgundian court of Charles the Bold (1467-77).
The voices of the Switzerland-based Ferrara Ensemble, which are used in varying configurations depending on the piece, make an excellent sound no matter what the combination, sustaining a high degree of energy throughout the long-ish mass movements.
This is a must-have for early music fans, and makes a nice companion to the Ferrara's earlier disc, The Whyte Rose (Arcana--review number Q358), which explores both the music of Frye and other composers from the same time and place.

Alternatively, it was a way of catching the listener's interest with snippets of what might have been a "pop" tune of that era.
Josquin's Missa Faisant Regretz is based on a secular song by the English composer Walter Frye.
Specifically, a minute or two into the song, the words "faisant regretz" (which here is translated as "ashamed") are sung; Frye sets the words to a falling third, followed by a rising and then a falling tone.

Josquin based his mass on a sturdy little motive drawn from the beginning of the 2nd part of a chanson by Walter Frye, Tout a par moy.
Agricola creates a different ostinato in the first part of his fantasia, one made from the opening motive of Frye's chanson, an upper neighbor figure: D-D-E-D. Both motives appear in the final movement of Josquin's mass, in ostinato simultaneously, while the superius sings the melody from Frye's original chanson.
