Abstract
John Brownes pre-eminence among the composers of the Eton Choirbook has been asserted in many works of reference. This study offers a detailed investigation into his handling of the antiphon form to which the manuscript is the most substantial witness. These readings of the music (which are also hearings) focus in particular on his large-scale, richly scored motets with trebles: O Maria salvatoris mater, Stabat mater and the six-voice Stabat virgo mater Christi. It is here argued that an important dimension of Brownes work is a particularly sophisticated approach to the articulation of the Eton motets panel structure. This is achieved in a number of ways that effect both short- and long-term connections within the form. This discussion also expands on Hugh Benhams remarks on the use of textural contrast within the style of the Eton composers as a whole.
