David Fallows

He is a leader in fifteenth-century music studies, particularly secular song, Guillaume Dufay, and Josquin des Prez, both the subject of landmark biographies Fallows has written.

He received the Dent Medal in 1982,[3] became Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 1994, a Fellow of the British Academy in 1997, a Corresponding Member of the American Musicological Society in 1999, and an Honorary Member of the Royal Musical Association in 2012.

A major article on the life of Johannes Regis (1989) also had a transformative impact on the understanding of the composer.

His 2009 study of the life and works of Josquin des Prez (Brepols) has been praised for understanding the conflicting information recently unearthed about the composer as well as presenting new hypotheses and understanding of the composer's music in light of new discoveries.

He has edited and introduced facsimile publications of the Songbook of Henry VIII,[9] the manuscript Oxford, Canon.
