Answer:
Renaissance culture and the culture of the Middle Ages had a great impact on Renaissance music, because they influenced the musicians of that time to have more freedom to compose their melodies and lyrics and not be limited to religious songs.
Explanation:
During the Middle Ages, the church was the largest institution with the power to interfere in the life of society in a grand way. For this reason, all artistic production at that time was composed of religious themes. It was no different with music and musicians were obliged to compose lyrics and melodies that would exalt God and bring him closer to men.
During the rebirth, the church lost its power and influence. The population, including the artists, were more focused on creating works that portrayed man and all his complexity. For this reason, Renaissance music had more plurality in its compositions. The musicians were not fated to compose by religious themes and were able to compose their works with subjects that they wanted to transmit.
