Period: 1430 to
Renaissance Era
Melodies of the Renaissance era dissociate syllables from the notes they were assigned to.
Harmonies in the Renaissance focused on 3rd and 6th progression, and dissonance was disapproved. Music was also modal.
Madrigal and Strophic music became common in the era.
Many types of string instruments were common in the Renaissance era, as well as solo vocalists. -
