to the Renaissance vocal music dominated all possible forms of music, usually relegating instrumental
dance and make introductions to voice; from baroque instrumental music experienced a great development

11. profane genre definition
Profane music; profane means being separate from (not associated or concerned with) religion. In the
West, secular music developed in the medieval period and was used in the Renaissance. Swaying authority
from the church that focused more on common law influenced all aspects of Medieval life, including music.
Secular music in the MIDDLE AGES included love songs, political satire, dances, and dramatic works. Drums,
harps,recorders, and bagpigies were the used in secular music because they were easy for the traveling
musicians to tote about. Instruments were taught through oral tradition and provided great dancing
music and accompanied the stanzas well.

13. PROFANE GENRE CURIOSITIES
Words are an important part of secular music. Words were added for most and many common people to
sing songs together for entertainment. Music styles were changed by secularization. The motet, for
example, moved out of the Church and into the courts of nobility which then caused the motet to be
forbidden in the Church. The largest collection of secular music from this period comes from poems of
celebration and chivalry of the troubadours from the south of France. These poems contain clever rhyme-
schemes, varied use of refrain-lines or words, and different metric patterns.
Composers ike Josquin de Perez wrote sacred and secular music. He composed 86 highly successful secular
works and 119 sacred pieces. Secular music also was aided by the formation of literature during the reign
of Charlemagne that included a collection of secular and semi-secular songs.
