    I'm trying to decide how to intone the Gloria of Ockeghem's Missa quinti toni. The Vatican editions seem to have only the 16c De angelis in this mode. Any other ideas?

    I believe the intonation for the Gloria of the Missa De Angelis would be standard for any Mode V Gloria.

    Well, yes, possibly... on the other hand the mode viii Glorias of masses V & VI open quite differently from each other. What I'm really fishing for is a mode v Gloria that would have been known to a composer who died in 1497.

    Would that composer be Ockeghem?

    Let me try a different tack. Should one take seriously the Solesmes attribution of the Mass VIII Gloria to the XVI century?

    There's another discussion here of intonations.
