Answer:

The Constitutional Convention gathered in Philadelphia to revise the Articles of Confederation. The Virginia delegation took the initiative to frame the debate by immediately drawing up and presenting a proposal, for which delegate James Madison is given chief credit. It was, however, Edmund Randolph, the Virginia governor at the time, who officially put it before the convention on May 29, 1787 in the form of 15 resolutions.

The scope of the resolutions, going well beyond tinkering with the Articles of Confederation, succeeded in broadening the debate to encompass fundamental revisions to the structure and powers of the national government. The resolutions proposed, for example, a new form of national government having three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. One contentious issue facing the convention was the manner in which large and small states would be represented in the legislature. The contention was whether there would be equal representation for each state regardless of its size and population, or proportionate to population giving larger states more votes than less-populous states.

Which composition can be best described as a medieval secular composition with original melodies that accompany a tenor line?
Nutka1998 [239]

The correct answer is: d. Motet.

The motet is a polyphonic composition born in the 13th century, made for singing at mass as a Latin religious choral composition, with biblical texts commonly. Until the 17th century it remained as one of the most important musical forms of polyphonic music. It was also characterized for its various melodies.

In the 15th century and the 16th century it expanded as a polyphonic vocal piece without instrument backing, a capella, with dynamically contrasting vocal lines with a imitative and dramatic character. It was one of the prominent polyphonic forms of Renaissance music.
