Quartet instrumentation as original instrumentation of a Renaissance work? ... no, I don't think so. Text unknown (only a brief incipit of the text available in the only available source for this work, the Chigian Codex which contains so much of - intended to contain all - of Ockeghem's work.) - Schissel (giving open instrumentation only because performance by voices is probably impossible except as vocalise, not because it was intended - ... ?) (Also, capitalization suggested by AMG is Ut heremita solus.)
