What is Medieval Music: Sacred vs. Secular about?
Music of the Medieval period (700-1400) consisted mainly of sacred Gregorian chant used for church services and secular songs performed by troubadours, with instruments including the lute and percussion gradually being introduced; vocal music was primarily monophonic while instrumental music remained accompaniment. Major composers included Adam de la Halle, known for writing one of the earliest surviving secular French plays with music.
