Life

Biography

Six pieces by Ziprianus survives in the Cancionero de Medinaceli (completed after 1560). Bernhard Maier, who included Ziprianus’ pieces in his complete edition of Cipriano de Rore’s works as “doubtful”, described the pieces as composed by “a ‘non-Italianized’ Netherlander of the mid-sixteenth century.” ed. Bernhard Meier (American Institute of Musicology, 1959-1977), vol. 8. Jessie Ann Owens, in her article about de Rore in Grove, suggested that Ziprianus might be Cipriano de Soto.
