Johannes Prioris (c. 1460 – c. 1514) was a Franco-Flemish composer of the Renaissance. He was one of the first composers to write a polyphonic setting of the Requiem Mass. He may have been born in Brabant. Very little is known about his life, except what can be inferred by the distribution of his manuscripts, and from his musical style. There is some evidence that he spent time in Rome as a singer at St. Peter's, since a similar name to his appears in the account ledgers <a href="https://www.las
