Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Jean Courtois (

Revolt of Ghent.[1][2] He wrote around 20 chansons, 15 motets, and 2 masses.[3]
Courtois’ work exhibits the varied imitative procedures and shifting textural treatment which typify the Franco-Netherlandish motet style. The chansons, for 4 voices, are in the "Parisian" style of the day; the works for 5 or 6 voices are in the more contrapuntal "Netherlandish" style.
