He was not an innovator, with the exception of a few late works, and wrote within a stable tradition. He was one of the last composers to make use of mediaeval techniques such as isorhythm, but one of the first to use the harmonies, phrasing, and expressive melodies characteristic of the early Renaissance. His compositions within the larger genres - masses, motets, and chansons - are mostly similar to each other; his renown is largely due to what was perceived as his perfect control of the forms in which he worked, as well as his gift for memorable and singable melody. During the fifteenth century he was universally regarded as the greatest composer of the time, and that belief has largely persisted to the present day. Dufay, who wrote mostly church music, was a priest. His most famous motet is probably Nuper rosarum flores composed for the consecration of the cathedral of Florence in 1436.

Adieu ces bons vins de Lannoys.
Adieu dames, adieu bourgeois,
Adieu celle que tant amoye,
Adieu toute playssante joye,
Adieu tout compagnons gallois.
Je m’en vois tout arquant des nois,
Car je ne truis feve ne pois,
Dont bien souvent au cuer m’ennoye.
De moy serés par plusiers fois,
Regrets par dedans les bois,
Ou il n’y a sentier ne voye;
Puis ne scaray que faire doye
Se je ne crie a haute vois:
Adieu ces bons vins de Lannoys...

Farewell those good wines of the Lannoys
Farewell ladies, farewell burghers,
Farewell to her whom I so loved.
Farewell all pleasure and joy.
Farewell all boon companions,
I depart all bent over by my load of nuts,
For I cannot find beans nor peas,
At which my heart feels constant annoyance.
I shall miss you frequently
Within the woods
Where there is neither path nor way.
And I shall not know what I ought to do,
But to cry aloud:
Farewell those good wines of the Lannoys…
@dejanstevanic5408

hermosa melodia tan distinta a estas epocas
@oIoIIX
so beutiful...
@MyAtomheart
Farewell, you fine wines of Laon, Farewell ladies, farewell townsfolk, Farewell she whom I loved so much, Farewell all pleasing joy, Farewell all bawdy companions. ... ... You will frequently by me Be missed, in the woods Where there is no track or way; Then I shall not know what to do, Unless to cry out in a loud voice:

This portrait is not of Dufay, but is suspected to represent Gilles Binchois... painted by Van Eyck, it is officially a portrait of Timotheus.
