Renaissance Radio

Edit your station name:

The Renaissance Period in Music is roughly A.D. 1400 to 1600. The composers selected in this "Radio Station" are broadly representative of European music during this time.

The process by which music acquired "Renaissance" characteristics was a gradual one, and musicologists have placed its beginnings from as early as 1300 to as late as the 1470s. In addition, the Italian humanist movement, rediscovering and reinterpreting the aesthetics of ancient Greece and Rome, influenced the development of musical style during the period.
