The School or Palestrina The language of Palestrina so suited the ideals of the Counter-Reformation that his style became synonymous with Roman Catholic polyphony over the next four hundred years. 'School of Palestrina' could thus include composers writing in the 'Roman' or 'Palestrina' style over the succeeding centuries, but here we limit it to a few composers known to have been his students or at least working in close association with him. The principal work of the program is Soriano's re-working of Palestrina's great six-voice Missa Papae Marcelli for eight-voice double choir |
