THE RENAISSANCE
Sacred Music
In class this week we heard a Motet by Josquin de Prez. Here is an NPR radio broadcast about Josquin's Missa Pange Lingua Mass. In this broadcast, Ted Libbey illustrates how Josquin incorporated Gregorian chant from the Medeival period into his music.
Next, watch this documentary on the life and music of Giovanni Palestrina. It also explains how Gregorian chant evolved into Polyphony. The documentary is in seven parts.
