When one considers the size of the Janequin catalogue (at present 426 titles, including both sacred and secular works) and the rich possibilites for confusion in 15th and 16th century music transmission, the number of conflicting attributions involving Janequin is happily rather modest. Of approximately 40 instances, about half can be written off to either the poorly indexed volume shared with Passereau in 1536 or the wholesale misappropriation of Janequin’s name in Gardano’s three-voice adventure of 1541.
