Grove music online, May 14, 2020 (Aulen; fl. late 15th cent.; German composer. His name may refer to the German city, Aalen, then called Aulen. Nothing is known of his biography, although Martin Just has drawn attention to two men named Johannes, from Aulen, who were at Vienna University in the middle of the century; a three-voice mass apparently by an "Aulen" exists in several sources, probably composed some decades earlier than the end of the century, the date of earliest source; probably not the composer of the later-style Salve virgo virginum, attributed to 'Joannes Aulen' in one of Petrucci's collections (RISM 1505²)) Der Mensuralkodex des Nikolaus Apel, 1956-1975: v. 3, page 407 (nothing is known of the composer Aulen; that he is identical with the "Jo. Aulen", composer of a motet printed by Petrucci, is very doubtful based on large stylistic differences) Computerized Mensural Music Editing WWW site, May 14, 2020 (Joannes Aulen (fl. c. 1500); composer of Salve virgo virginum (in Motetti libro quarto, Venice, 1505; RISM 1505²)) Eitner, R. Quellen-Lexikon, 1959 (Aulen,... maybe Joannes Aulen, composer of a motet published by Petrucci in 1505b fol. 23; in Ms. Cod. Z 21, B. B., 15. Jh., fol. 41v, an "Officium Aulen", Missa 4 [sic] voci) MGG, 2., neubearb. Ausg. (Aulen appeared around 1500 as a composer of a mass and, with the first name Johannes, a motet. The motet, Salue virgo virginum, in Petrucci's fourth book of motets, on the other hand, is comparable in style to the other works in the collection. Heinrich Besseler ruled out that the creator of the mass could also be a composer of the motet; however, if the composer belongs to the Desprez/Isaac generation or if he is even closer to Agricola's, there is no compelling reason for doubting his authorship of both works.)
