@smithsherman You are so astonishingly funny.

To me the difference is in the balance of the voices. With Monteverdi, one voice becomes predominant, the rest accompaniment.

Wunderschöne Alte Musik! - Fantastisch!

It's a bit rambling, but the way Bull uses harmonic progressions is quite lovely.

Thanks for the reply. I am just beginning to discover music from this era, and it is useful to work out how the different styles dissipated throughout europe.

It's the music that would become or evolve into the English Baroque.
Baroque is music that took place after 1600, so before would be considered Late Renaissance.
There is still a layer of piety and austerity that is attached to ancient music, which separates it from the true Baroque.

It is expected to "ramble". It is a Fantasy - meaning no preset style or dance form. Hence, these are improvisatory in character.
