Brumel's Missa pro defunctis for four voices, a late work, is notable for being the first Requiem to include
a polyphonic setting of the Dies Iræ.Each movement is apparently based on a plainchant, but not all can
be identified today. The unknown chants are in the Christe, Sanctus and Agnus Dei; the others can be
found in the Liber Usualis.
