== Magister Albertus's Extant Works? == There is a contradiction between what is stated in the article and what is stated on a site referred to, the French Encyclopédie Larousse http://www.larousse.fr/encyclopedie/musdico/Albert/165760. On that site Magister Albertus is credited with having written the earliest known 3 voice piece in Western music, the [[conductus]] "''Benedicamus Domino''" from the [[Codex Calixtinus]] while in the article it is said his only extant piece is the conductus "''Congaudeant Catholici''" (number of voices?) and the source is the [[New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians|New Grove]]. How can the two statements be reconciled? Signed: [[User:Basemetal|Basemetal]] (write to me [[User talk:Basemetal|here]]) 01:37, 11 December 2012 (UTC) Note: Actually Larousse says "the earliest known piece in 3 voices" ("la première pièce à 3 voix connue") but they must mean "in Western music" since I doubt they took explicitly into account the [[Georgian Orthodox Church]]'s 3 voice polyphony (but then again they may have or may have happened by chance to be right even with this broader statement).</s>[[User:Basemetal|Basemetal]] 15:54, 6 September 2016 (UTC)Basemetal 14:32, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
