"This mass is a parody of D'un autre amer (Johannes Ockeghem) by Johannes Ockeghem, Josquin's teacher. Its attribution to Josquin has been questioned but seems as reliable as we can expect; the New Josquin Edition regards it as Josquin's work, at any rate. It is notable for a couple of things: its brevity – the longest movement takes no more than five minutes, and the whole mass can be performed in fifteen – and the substitution of the motet ''Tu solus qui facis mirabilium'' for the ''Benedictus''. Josquin wrote two other pieces based on ''D'ung aultre amer'': another ''Sanctus D'ung aultre amer - Tu lumen (Josquin des Prez)'' (with ''Benedictus'' and Elevation motet ''Tu lumen, tu splendor patris'') and a setting of the Easter sequence ''Victimae paschali laudes (Josquin des Prez)''."
