Adrianus Petit Coclico

Life

Born: 1499

Died: 1562

Biography

Like many Renaissance composers, very little is known about Coclico's early life. He was raised Catholic but became a Protestant and left Flanders for Germany. The earliest known reference to him in official documents is at Wittenberg University in 1545, and though he later claimed to have been a pupil of Josquin des Prez and to have worked for Henry VIII, the French royal court, and the Pope, scholarship has not been able to substantiate any of these claims.

A solis ortus Afflictus sum Bicinium super Salve sancta parens Carmen super Pange lingua Christus spes mea Clamavit ad me

Gustate et videte In te Domine speravi Memento mei Non derelinquet Dominus Nulla quidem virtus Omnis consummationis

Sic Deus dilexit mundum Tibi vivo Tribulatio et angustia Venite exsultemus Domino Vigilate et orate
