Résumé:

This title combines historical research into the architectural and liturgical traditions of 12 Venetian churches with the results of a parallel series of scientific surveys of the acoustic properties of the chosen buildings.
"While composers of sacred music in 16th-century Venice were devising increasingly complex choral polyphony, Venetian architects began to develop new configurations of sacred space. This fascinating book explores the direct relationship between architectural design and sacred music in Renaissance Venice. Deborah Howard and Laura Moretti combine historical research into the architectural and liturgical traditions of a dozen Venetian churches with the results of a parallel series of scientific surveys and live choral experiments of the acoustic properties of the chosen buildings."--Provided by publisher.
