 | | In addition, many composers observed a division in their own works between a prima pratica (music in the Renaissance polyphonic style) and a seconda pratica (music in the new style) during the first part of the 17th century. | | | The brief but intense flowering of the musical madrigal in England, mostly from 1588 to 1627, along with the composers who produced them, is known as the English Madrigal School. | | | Music in the Middle Ages and Renaissance (Music Literature Outlines Series I). |

| | Of course, secular music thrived during this period, and instrumental and dance music was performed in abundance, if not always written down. | | | French composer Claude Debussy was fascinated by Eastern music and the whole-tone scale, and created a style of music named after the movement in French painting called Impressionism. | | | During the same period, the first voice of the burgeoning Romantic musical ethic can be found in the music of Viennese composer Franz Schubert. |

| | Renaissance Music |
| | This was music written for groups of solo voices with the accompaniment of instruments. | | | Renaissance musicians distinguished between loud outdoor instruments like trumpets and the shawm, which was a double reeded ancestor of the oboe, and soft indoor instruments like the lute and the recorder (an early flute). | | | This was a sharp contrast from most of the Renaissance composers and musicians. |

| | Renaissance Music |
| | Renaissance musicians played organ, harpsichord, sackbut (an early trombone), cornetto (a small, slightly curved trumpet without a bell), recorder, flute, shawm (an early oboe), krummhorn (a quiet, kazoo-like double-reed instrument shaped like a J), dulcian (an early one-piece bassoon), harp, viol (an early violin-like instrument with frets), and a variety of drums, bells, and cymbals. | | | In the early musical Renaissance (1400s), there was one dominant style, that of the Flemish (in what is now known as the Netherlands and Belgiuim) and French composers, but by about 1550, other national styles became distinct again, starting with Italy. | | | It describes a style of philosophy, visual art, architecture, theater, literature, and music for this period. |

| | A Selection of Renaissance Music |
| | French instrumental ensemble music of the period consisted generally of short dances and was usually unattributed. | | | Indeed, French literature of the period is extremely rich, and this is reflected in the choice of musical settings, ranging from love poems by such writers as Ronsard (1524-1585) to fanciful compositions inspired by the satirical imagination of Rabelais (c.1494-c.1553). | | | Alongside this activity in lighter dances, abstract polyphonic music for instruments also began to survive in idiomatic collections. |

| | Musical Epochs - The Renaissance |
| | The characteristic musical style of the Renaissance period is the smooth, homogeneous, imitative polyphonic style, used by Palestrina, Lassus and Byrd. | | | The favoured instrument was the lute, which during the 16th century became established as the standard instrument for domestic music-making. | | | The word means 'rebirth', referring to the objective of intellectuals and artists of the time to repudiate the previous era (the Middle Ages) and to restore the philosophical and artistic ideals of classical antiquity. |
