[edit] The 1980 Grove article

I think much of the article should be rewritten using newer sources, as Sparks' text is no longer valid. Wegman's entry on Obrecht in Grove Online specifically addresses the issue, explaining in great detail why Sparks is in error about various aspects of Obrecht's personality, work and historical significance. Unfortunately I am no expert on Obrecht or Renaissance polyphony, but I hope someone more knowledgeable will come along, see this notice and maybe correct the article.
