Johannes Prioris (Composer)
Born: 1460, Duchy of Brabant
Died: 1512, France
Nationality: Netherlandish
Johannes Prioris was a Netherlandish composer of the Renaissance. He was one of the first composers to write a polyphonic setting of the Requiem Mass.
On the basis of documents surrounding Saint-Sauveur in Blois, Theodor Dumitrescu has argued that Prioris is to be identified with the composer "Denis Prieur," making his Latin name "Dionysius Proris." The name "Johannes" is attested in a single source.
He may have been born in Brabant.
