This work was not included in Barton Hudson's 1979 'complete' edition and is also attributed to both Clément Jannequin and Adrian Willaert. Its appearance in the Chansonnier of Jérôme Lauweryn of Watervliet, which almost certainly dates from before either of those composers just mentioned was active, suggests this must be by Ninot.
This is one of a number of Ninot pieces that are unique to a single source, the so-called "Chansnnier Strozzi", for which the bassus partbook is lost. For all of these works I have reconstructed a bass part, a task that is actually reasonably straightforward given the nature of how these short works by Ninot have been written.

A very straightforward little piece that perhaps foreshadows the later English 'Ballett.' Sits very comfortably for a mixed-voice ensemble at the original pitch.

This edition based on Petrucci's Canti C but has been texted from the single surviving partbook of F-Pnm NAF 1817. Some re-voicing has been undertaken to allow the range to be suitable for SATB performance.
The original text is lost, so I have supplied a text based on the modification of a poem thought to have been written by Henry VIII. Sits very well for SATB at the original pitch with no voicing adjustments required.

A more extensive work than most of Ninot's chansons. This edition in part employs ANCIENS TEXTES FRANÇAIS - CHANSONS DU XV SIECLE. Gaston, Paris, 1877 for texting purposes. Some re-voicing has been done to allow the work to sit comfortably within the range of a modern mixed-voice ensemble.
Double canon. This work is also not in Hudson's volume but is clearly attributed to 'Minot le Petit' in S-Uu Vokalmusik i Handskrift 76a. This edition has been texted from Pierre Attaingnant's 1528 print: Chansons et Motetz en Canon.
