Let's revise myself abit of history, where does actually music started ?? Well, it would up to 600 years ago, in churches.. This age of music, is called as the Renaissance age music, People go churches and listen to music, sacred for them, the form of music at that time is in monophonic, where all the choirs sings at the same melody line, you sing DO, he sings DO, everyone sings DO, and music in the church meant only for the nobles, not for the normal peasants like I do..

A choir boy and later a masses, motet and hymn composer was born, with the name Giovanni Palestrina, he started to wrote polyphonic music, which you sing DO, he sings MI, some sing SO, it became a harmony and different melody line carry out through out the whole song at the same time.. it was banned, because polyphonic was considered as not sacred, but soon the ban was lifted, because the Pope says "Palestrina's music is too beautiful to be banned".. The age of Renaissance ends as Palestrina, people entitled him as "The Prince of Music", passed away, as he started the use of polyphonic, bringing out the new style for the following period, the Baroque period, the period when one of the greatest musician at that time existed, J.S, Johann Sebastian Bach.. shall talk about him other time.. :)
