What is Palestrina about?
Palestrina was a prominent Renaissance composer active between 1525-1594. During his career, the Council of Trent mandated that church music must serve the text. Palestrina wrote 104 masses that featured contrapuntal, homophonic, and antiphonal styles. His Missa Papae Marcelli is frequently cited as exemplifying his style of clear text setting through stepwise melodic lines, equal voice leading, and balance between parts.
