The '''renaissance period''' in music was, as in many other fields of human endeavor, a tremendous outpouring of creativity and spirit after the stifling centuries of the middle ages. As [[classical music]] has tended to reflect the energies of the age in which it is made, this period is marked by a great and passionate, yet intelligent and thoughtful, devotion to God and Christianity.
Prominent composers that mark this era are:
*Dufay
*Josquin
*Palestrina
*Lassus
*Byrd Victoria
