| Summary |
During the Renaissance, secular music rivaled church music for prominence, harmonic lines intertwined and changed music forever with the emergence of polyphony, and, in general, musical composition was taken to new heights. The composers and musicians who provided the soundtrack to this period are the subject of this volume, which also takes a look at instruments of the day. |
