A work of the so-called "Netherland School," it uses the Hypo-Ionian and Mixo-Lydian modes, and it inspired one listener to say that he now understood the music of heaven which drew John to Jesus. It debuted at the home of Cardinal Vitellozzi and was repeated in the Sistine Chapel shortly thereafter to the great satisfaction of its audience; it was able to produce such an impression despite eschewing most ornament and all innovation in order to conform to the guidelines recently issued by the Council of Trent. It was composed on spec in 1562 and was ready for a subsequent commission by Pius IV, but was titled after a man who was in power for twenty-three days some decades earlier. For 10 points, name this pinnacle of the Renaissance mass, a work by Giovanni da Palestrina.
