Improvises Appropriate Accompaniment to Selected Music from Medieval
Renaissance and Baroque Period
I. Learning Competency with Code

Improvises appropriate accompaniment to selected music from Medieval,
Renaissance and Baroque Period. (MU9MRB -Ib-d-7)
II. Background Information for Learners
Music of the Medieval Period (700-1400)
The Medieval period is also known as the Middle Ages or “Dark Ages” which
started with the fall of the Roman Empire. During the latter part of the Medieval
Period, secular music which was not bound by Catholic traditions emerged. Most of
these songs were performed across Europe by groups of musicians called
Troubadours.
Troubadour Music:
 Usually monophonic
 Sometimes with improvised accompaniment
 Tells of chivalry and courtly love
 Originated in France
 Written in the French language
Music of the Renaissance Period (1400-1600)
The term Renaissance comes from the word renaitre which means “rebirth,”
“revival,” and “rediscovery.” The Renaissance period is a period of “looking back” to
the Golden Age of Greece and Rome.
With the emergence of the bourgeois class, renaissance music became
popular as entertainment and activity for amateurs and the educated. Lute was the
prominent instrument of the renaissance era. The influence of the Roman Catholic
Church started to decline as the new music genre arose.

Though sacred music was still of great importance, secular music became
more prominent in the renaissance period. This era was also known as the “golden
age” of acapella choral music.
Characteristics of Renaissance Music:
 Mostly polyphonic
 Imitation among the voices is common
 Use of word painting in texts and music
 Melodic lines move in a flowing manner
 Melodies are easier to perform because these move along a scale with a few
large leaps
Vocal Music of the Renaissance Period
1. Mass- is a form of sacred musical composition that sets texts of the
Eucharistic liturgy into music.
2. Madrigal- a secular vocal polyphonic music composition that originated from
Italy. It was written and expressed in a poetic text and sung during courtly
social gatherings.
Music of the Baroque Period (1685-1750)
The word Baroque is derived from the Portuguese word barroco which means
“pearl of irregular shape.” During this time, the arts highlighted grandiose and
elaborate ornamentation. These were clearly seen in the musical compositions
created by Baroque composers.
Characteristics of Baroque Music:
 Melodies sound elaborate and ornamental

 Melodies are not easy to sing or remember
 Primarily contrapuntal textures with some homophony
 Dynamic contrast- the alternation between loud and soft
 Music genres- operas, orations, suites, toccatas, concerto grosso, fugue
 Orchestra consists of strings and continuo
 Harpsichord and organ are the keyboard instruments that are commonly used
 New forms:
1. Binary – AB
2. Ternary – ABC
3. Ground bass
4. Fugue
