Music with essentially Renaissance characteristics continued to be composed, particularly in England, but also in Spain, Portugal, and France, for the first few decades of the 17th century (see English Madrigal School, air de cour).
Secular music included songs for one or many voices, forms such as the frottola, chanson and madrigal, consort music for recorder or viol and other instruments, and dances for various ensembles; and towards the end of the period, the early dramatic precursors of opera such as monody, the madrigal comedy, and the intermedio.
Renaissance music was modal as opposed to tonal.

The music, on the other hand, does not reveal Byrd as simply upholding the traditions of compositional style from earlier sacred music and this may reflect the influence of the Reformation on his religious music.
Tallis's compositional career had, of course, begun earlier than Byrd's and he was a master of the older style of melismatic counterpoint built on a cantus firmus, but in adapting to the English liturgies he achieved effective results focusing on the rhythm and accent of English words moving the voice parts in parallel.
It should nevertheless be emphasised that this was not the sole precedent for a closer relationship between words and music: Josquin's vocal music provides sufficient evidence of a changing focus before the influence of the Reformations was felt (Josquin died in 1521).

Martin Luther (1483-1546) reformed church music and composed music in his native tongue for use in church services.
In his operas, such as La favola d'Orfeo (1607), the music was more than a vehicle for the words; it expressed and interpreted the poetry of the libretto.
His audiences were moved to an understanding of the possibilities of music's role in drama.

In the John Cage Music Manuscript Collection of The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts there is a folder of 13 pages of handwritten music (plus one cover page) by John Cage that contains a work titled Chess Pieces (call number: JPB 95-3 Folder 109).
For example, in chess, a person who creates puzzles and problems to be solved is called a composer, and two different sequences of moves that lead from one given position to another are said to be related by transposition.
Some other terms that are used in chess and music are: play, piece, notation, score, tempo, theme, variation, development, minimal composition, round, major and minor, position, second, retrograde, mirror, attack, anticipation, phase and echo.

Western music begins to move from monophony to polyphony with the vocal parts in church music moving in parallel intervals.
In Pope Pius IV's Counter-Reformation, he restores church music to its pure vocal form by eliminating all instruments except the organ, any evidence of secularism, harmony and folk melody.

 HOASM: Thomas Ravenscroft
Ravenscroft taught music at Christ's Hospital in 1618-22, and in 1621 published a collection of psalms composed by himself and others entitled The whole Booke of Psalmes with the Hymnes Evangelicall and Songs Spirituall.
Ravenscroft was also responsible for the preservation of the largest collection of popular vocal music in his three printed catch books: Pammelia(1609), Deuteromalia(1609), and Melismata(1611).
The works were clearly intended for a popular audience; it is not clear whether they appealed to the same people as took an interest in the madrigal, or whether the publishers were trying to reach a new audience.
