Papal Music and Musicians inMedieval and Renaissance Rome This book collects twelve of the papers given at a conference held at the Library of Congress in conjunction with the exhibition Rome Reborn: The Vatican Library and Renaissance Culture. This volume presents a series of wide-ranging and original treatments of music written for the papal court and performed there from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century. It offers new discoveries that force a radical reevaluation of the Italian papal court as a musical center during the Great Schism. A series of motets for various popes are closely analyzed and new interpretations and information are offered concerning the repertory of the papal chapel in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the institutional life of the papal singers, and the individual biographies of singers and composers.
