This man joined with Annibale Zoilo in a failed attempt to restore the plainsong. This composer'sfirst published book of masses landed him a position as music director at the Julian Chapel, and healso served in the papal choir until he was removed for being married. This composer of the MassWith N Name wrote O Magnum Mysterium and over three hundred other (*) motets. His mostinfluential ideas were that dissonances should only be on passing notes and weak beats, music shouldhave small leaps between notes counterbalanced by stepwise movement in the opposite direction, andmusic should not be static. For 10 points, name this composer who was important to Renaissancepolyphony, which he demonstrated in his Pope Marcellus Mass.
