What is Overview of Medieval to Baroque Music about?

During the Medieval period: - Music was primarily vocal with instruments accompanying vocal lines or improvising dances. Little instrumental music survives. - Rhythm was not notated and was determined by text, abilities of singers/instrumentalists, and traditions. - Melodic intervals and ranges were small, based on church modes like Gregorian chant. - Harmony and tonality did not exist. Music was constructed of separate lines rather than chords. Parallel fifths and octaves were common, triads dissonant.
