With the publication of all six- and eight-part motets as well as all canons, the fourth volume of the NSE completes the new edition of Ludwig Senfl's motets. Among them are Senfl's famous re-working of Josquin Desprez' Ave, Maria … Virgo serena, the three eight-part motets with an unusually large scoring for the time (presumably composed for state occasions). The volume also contains all works conceived as pure canons, such as the three-part double canon Crux fidelis – Ecce lignum crucis – O crux, ave, the Laudate Dominum for 3–6 voices, and the riddle canon Salve, sancta parens, which forms a magic square. In addition to the scholarly editions, the volume offers numerous illustrations as well as comprehensive critical reports on each work, including information on the texts, plainchant models, and the historical context of the works.
