Renaissance Music – The Basics
• Most music is vocal during this period – instruments were not yet standardized or mass-produced
• Two categories of music:
 Sacred – for use in Catholic churches (remember, Europe, at the time, was almost entirely
Catholic)
 Secular – everything else: ie. dancing, love, etc.
• Sacred music written in Latin
• Secular music written in vernacular (local language)

Harmony
• Harmony: when two or more pitches sound at the
same time
• Therefore, if you have two or more singers on
different pitches, you have harmony
Harmony INTO Polyphony
• If this harmony sounds like two completely
independent lines of melody, you have
polyphony.
multiple (Greek)

polyphony
Polyphony Application
• While listening to this classic
Beatles’ tune, identify the
parts of the song that
contain polyphony.
– Intro, Verse 1, 2, 3, Bridge,
Chorus? Where is it?

Josquin des Prez
• Dates of Life: 1450-1521
• Location of Birth: Belgium or France
• Patrons: Julius II
• Interesting Fact:
• He was directing the Sistine Choir while Michelangelo was painting the ceiling
and Raphael was creating the School of Athens
• Influences: Master of multiple genres, specifically the motet
• Important Fact: One of the greatest composers of complex polyphonic music – called
the High Renaissance style.
Josquin des Prez
Structure of Music
• Blended polyphony and 3 tone chord harmonies
• Matched words with music (wordmatching)
• All voice parts composed at one time
– united parts rhythmically and harmonically
• Preferred motet to the strict tradition of the Mass
• required attentive/educated audience to be appreciated
Form: Motet
des Prez’s favorite genre
•
•
•
•
Popular genre of polyphonic music during Renaissance
Always vocal
Usually sacred (remember, sacred = church music)
Voices combine into chords as they change, creating
shifting consonance and dissonance
Josquin’s Ave Maria
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUAgAF4Khmg
• “Ave Maria” = “Hail, Mary”
Musical setting of the traditional “Hail, Mary” prayer used in
many Christian churches.
• Voices overlap, hear how the notes form different harmonies as
the lines change one by one.
• Listen for dissonance resolving to consonance!
Josquin’s Ave Maria
•Entering voices parts
indicated by red
marks
•Voices range from
high to low: soprano,
alto, tenor, bass
The Church, mix-tapes, and polyphony
When composers wrote church music, they often recycled (or sampled) the tunes of
secular songs – even songs about drinking and sex – just like today’s artists sample
songs from earlier years.
Ray Charles – I’ve Got a Woman
“The song builds on "It Must Be Jesus" by the Southern Tones,
that Ray Charles was listening to on the radio while on the
road with his band in the summer of 1954….” “…built along a
gospel-frenetic pace with secular lyrics and a jazz-inspired
rhythm and blues.” (wikipedia)

Giovanni Palestrina
• Dates of Life: 1525-1575
• Location of Birth: Palestrina, Italy
• Patrons: Pope Marcellus
• Interesting Fact:
• He was the choirmaster of the Julian Choir that performed exclusively in St.
Peter’s Basilica. He was also the music director for the Vatican.
• Influences: Gregorian Mass, Renaissance restraint, and the Counter-Reformation
• Important Fact:
• He is the greatest composer of church music and he is known for his restrained
polyphony.
Giovanni Palestrina
• Abandoned secular music style of des Prez
• His compositions are typified as very clear, with voice
parts well-balanced and beautifully harmonized.
• strict style created music that was always full and fluid
• Restrained dissonance
– 6 voices showed complex polyphony could still be
pleasing to the ear
• high point of sacred music in late Renaissance
Form: Mass
center of religious life
•The Mass is the weekly (or daily) worship service in the
Catholic Church. Often times entirely new music was written
for the mass.
The Mass is always composed of the same five basic
parts:
Kyrie
Gloria
Credo
Sanctus-Benedictus
Agnus Dei
King
George
Can’t
Sing
Alto
Mass
• The sections always have the same basic texts.
Kyrie - Greek:
Kyrie - English:
Kýrie, eléison
Christe, eléison
Kýrie, eléison
Kýrie, eléison
Lord, have mercy
Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Palestrina’s Pope Marcellus Mass
Listen for the words. They repeat constantly in all six voices – it’s polyphony:
Kýrie, eléison
Christe, eléison
Kýrie, eléison
Kýrie, eléison

Palestrina’s Pope Marcellus Mass
According to legend, this piece caused early church fathers to
allow polyphony to stay as part of the Mass. Remember, they
were upset that composers were writing religious texts to the
music of bawdy songs. Palestrina’s music showed them that
polyphony could be refined and worthy of use in church
ceremonies.
Palestrina’s Pope Marcellus Mass
•Compare Palestrina to Josquin.
•P’s is generally considered to be more refined polyphony than earlier
composers (Josquin).
•For this reason, Palestrina is probably the best known and most popular
composer of Renaissance polyphony, and the greatest composer of church
music of the period.
Eulogies:
• Objective:
– To broaden your understanding of the past by writing a eulogy that
extols the virtues of a prominent historical figure.
• Requirements of Eulogy:
– 1) Should be written in formal language (no slang, abbreviations,
etc.)
– 2) Include a brief summary of the person containing important
facts
– 3) Discuss the individual’s legacy.
– 4) Explain how the achievements of this individual still affects the
world today.
– 5) What makes this individual better than the other composer
from this period?
– 6) Be written from a perspective of someone who knew the
composer. Show some emotion!
• One paper… two names… At least half a page long!
Form: Madrigal
• Popular genre of polyphonic music during Renaissance – in both
Italy and England
• Always vocal – between two and eight voices
• Always secular
• Choruses repeat, like today’s pop music. Voices enter and drop out
suddenly to highlight the text
• Music imitates words: called text painting.
• Fun & spicy topics: love, sex, drinking, partying, etc.
“Fair Phyllis I Saw Sitting All Alone”
• Popular madrigal by John Farmer (c. 1570 – c. 1601)
• In four voices (soprano, alto, tenor, bass)
• Words in English
• Voices have slightly different rhythms. This overlap creates polyphony – 4 voices
with equal importance
• Secular Subject:
• The song describes a person who saw a young shepherdess sitting alone
feeding her sheep near a mountain. The other shepherds did not know where
she was at the time. Her lover, Amyntas, goes looking for her and wanders
through the hills playing hide and seek. Eventually he finds her, and when he
does, they fall down and start kissing.
• Secular subject matter sometimes created innuendos
(double meanings – sometimes sexual or inappropriate topics)
“Fair Phyllis” (cont.)
Fair Phyllis I saw sitting all alone
Feeding her flock near to the mountain side.
The shepherds knew not,
they knew not whither she was gone,
But after her lover Amyntas hied,
Up and down he wandered
whilst she was missing;
When he found her,
O then they fell a-kissing.
“Fair Phyllis” (cont.)
Things to notice:
• Word painting: soprano alone sings the line “Fair Phyllis I saw
sitting all alone,” (because she’s alone)
• Word painting: “Feeding her flock…” has all voices, (because a
flock = lots of sheep)
• Word painting: “Up and down he wandered…” – the voices follow
up and down
• “Hied” = “hurried” – an archaic English word
Recap:
• 3 forms: Mass, motet, madrigal
• Mass and motet in Latin, madrigal in English
• Palestrina = Italian
• Josquin = Belgium/French
• Polyphony = overlapping voices of equal importance
• Consonance = 2 or more pitches that resonate pleasingly/smoothly together
• Dissonance = 2 or more pitches that somewhat clash
Exit Slip
• 1) Identify the composer, form, and title of the
following clips:
– Clip One:
– Clip Two:
– Clip Three:
• 2) How is the structure of Des Prez and Palestrina
similar?
• 3) Discuss how historical events influence the
difference between the music of Des Prez and
Palestrina.
