Palestrina 500: Vocal Works by Palestrina and Monteverdi
In more than 100 mass settings and countless motets, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525–1594) raised the vocal polyphony of the High Renaissance to such artistic heights that the term “Palestrina style” became synonymous with an entire musical era shortly after his death.
