Dunstable, John

Dunstable, John
( 1385, Inglaterra–24 dic. 1453, Londres).

Compositor inglés. Su vida y su carrera son casi desconocidas. Después de su muerte se le atribuyeron los logros de todos sus contemporáneos ingleses, entre ellos, Leonel Power (n. 1380–m. 1445). Dejó al menos 50 composiciones, todas para tres o cuatro voces y casi todas sacras. Su armonía plena de acordes perfectos y el frecuente movimiento paralelo de las voces representaron una innovación importante que influyó en compositores como Guillaume Dufay y Gilles Binchois (n. 1400–m. 1460), suavizando así la austeridad de la polifonía del s. XIV.
