In Review: Renaissance Style (1/2)

Polyphonic texture Although monophonic plainchant continued to be used in sacred services, new music is almost entirely polyphonic. Imitative counterpoint becomes increasingly important (Byrd). Four-voice texture is the norm at the beginning of the Renaissance (Josquin); six voice texture is the norm by the end (Byrd).
Melody Greater use of disjunct motion; melodies still based on medieval modes
Rhythm Metrical structure provides a framework for rhythms that are usually fluid (Josquin, Weelkes, Byrd), though in the case of dance music these rhythms are more repetitive (Susato)

In Review: Renaissance Style (2/2)

Word painting Setting specific words to music that imitates the meaning of those words
Binary form The most common form for dance movement, consisting of two sections, each repeated in performance
