Loyset Compère
(Hainaut, c.1445 - St Quentin, 16 August 1518)

French composer. According to the poet Jean Molinet, Compère belonged to a family from St Omer, in the county of Artois; a Milanese document of 1476, moreover, describes him as a cleric of Arras, also in Artois. During the mid-1470s Compère belonged to the cappella of Galeazzo Maria Sforza, Duke of Milan. Later he was a singer in the service of Charles VIII of France until at least 1498. After serving as dean of the church of St. Gery in Cambrai (1498-1500), he was provost of the collegiate church of St. Pierre in Douai until about 1504. From 1491 he also held a canonry at the collegiate church in St. Quentin. His extant works include Masses, mass sections, motetti, missales, a Magnificat, motets, motet-chansons, and frottolas. L. Finscher ed. his works in the Corpus Mensurabilis Musicae series (1958-72). He was one of the leading chanson and motet composers of the late 15th and early 16th centuries.
