Carlotta Ferrari (b. 1975) — Preludio e mottetto sul nome di Josquin (2021) for organ
This piece was written to mark the 500th anniversary of the death of Josquin des Prez (ca. 1455–1521) and is based on the syllables of his name converted to musical notes. A free prelude on the name theme is followed by a contrapuntal motet of increasing complexity.
