Susanne un jour


Susanne un jour is a 16th-century French poem by Guillaume Guéroult based on the biblical story of Susannah and the Elders. It was set to music by Didier Lupi Second and much adapted by later composers, including Orlande de Lassus, Cipriano de Rore, Gerard van Turnhout, Claude Le Jeune, and Eustache Du Caurroy.
Lassus's Missa Susanne un Jour is a mass setting on the theme of the song tune.
