OpenStudy (angelmarie328):

I am thinking maybe harmony. Just not sure. The Renaissance opened the door for more complex musical compositions through the work of Palestrina and the use of imitation. This imitation created some harmony. However, the melody that was being imitated remained fairly simple and plain in its structure due to concerns of church leaders. Not sure but it is either C or D.
