A Latin song composed and performed by David W Solomons (dwsChorale) expressing some of the anarchic jollity of Saturnalia - obscure references in the Latin to 20th Century politicians are just for fun and have no political significance. The pilleum (or pileum) is the little cap of liberty worn by slaves who were traditionally freed on Saturnalia.

This satirical little frottola by Josquin is believed to be a gentle reminder to his patron Galeazzo Sforza that his musicians need paying. Josquin may be punning on the name of a fellow impecunious musician (Frillo) by calling him a cricket (Grillo). This performance is by the dwsChorale (David Solomons)
