From Fallows: "Before the publication of Kaye’s edition of the sacred music (1991), several writers tended to portray Binchois as primarily a song composer; that view does not correspond to either the relative quantity of his works in the various categories or the greater variety of styles and techniques found in his sacred music. According to such criteria, the mass movements are at the centre of his artistic world." – use in legacy
