1400- 1467


Early Renaissance was between the years of 1400 and 1467. In this period the complex devices of the Medieval Era were gradually dropped. Such as isorhythm, that being the organization of fixed pattern of pitches with a repeating rthyminc pattern. And extreme syncopation, that involves a variety of rhythms which are in some ways unexpected which an off-beat tunes or musical piece. This resulted in a more limpid and flowing style, what they lost in rhythmic complexity it gained in rhythmic vitality becoming a main feature around the mid-century.
