This is probably a long shot, but does anyone happen to know the name of the 40 part motet Palestrina composed? I can't find it anywhere, and i don't really want to a buy a cd heh.

So, to get more talk out of people, what do you think of renaissance music? It's one of my favorites so far i think...baroque is close so far but we haven't dove that far into it yet so i can't compare exactly yet.
