The Golden Age of Polyphony

The Renaissance is often called the golden age of polyphony which was by instance practised by the Flemish musicians like Johannes Ockeghem (c.1420-1495) and Josqiun de Prez (c.1440-1521). The polyphonic traditions reached their culmination in the works of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c.1525-1594).

Write an essay about musicians from your region in that period or later who composed and played also polyphonic music and tell us how they were influenced by these polyphonic traditions. Did they correspond about musical or other interests.
