Jacobus Barbireau (also Barbirianus) (1455 – August 7, 1491) was a Renaissance composer from the Southern Netherlands. He was considered to be a superlative composer both by his contemporaries and by modern scholars, however his surviving output is small, and he died young. Until the 1960s he was confused with another somewhat older composer named Barbingant; sources of the period often use variant spellings or omit first names of composers, making such confusion common. <a href="https://www.la
