Jacobus de Clibano (fl. c. 1430–1450; attribution uncertain) On La Morra’s Mirabilia Musica: Echoes from late medieval Cracow, the composer credit on track 12 is given as “Jacobus de Clibano ?” for the two-voice Sanctus “Gustati necis pocula” (with a three-voice Benedictus section). The booklet notes that this Sanctus survives in Central European transmission and is also found in Austrian sources with attributions either to Jacobus de Clibano—described there as “a singer active in Bruges”—or to a certain Sweikl, which is why the CD prints the credit with a question mark. Beyond that single work and the conflicting ascriptions, there is no securely reconstructable biography in the accessible reference layer: “Jacobus de Clibano” here appears to function primarily as an attribution label attached to one Sanctus rather than a fully documented historical figure. (This is also why he can easily be confused with later, better-documented members of the de Clibano family—i.e., different people.)
