The term "spatial music" indicates music in which the location and movement of sound sources is a primary compositional parameter and a central feature for the listener. It may involve a single, mobile sound source, or multiple, simultaneous, stationary or mobile sound events in different locations.
 
There are at least fourthree distinct categories when plural events are treated spatially:<ref>Maconie, Robin (2005). ''Other Planets: The Music of Karlheinz Stockhausen'' (Lanham, Maryland, Toronto, Oxford: The Scarecrow Press, Inc.): 296. {{ISBN|0-8108-5356-6}}.</ref>
#essentially independent events separated in [[auditorium|space]], like simultaneous [[concert]]s, each with a strong signaling character
#one or several such signaling events, separated from more "passive" [[reverberation|reverberating]] background complexes
#separated but coordinated [[musical ensemble|performing groups]].
#sound in trajectory (flying in space) 1. as recorded sounds (born with [[Karlheinz Stockhausen]]'s Kontakt), andor 2. as performed instrumental live music (born with [[Mathius Shadow-Sky]]'s Ourdission <ref> Mathius Shadow-Sky polytrajectophonic music started with Ourdission in 1982 http://centrebombe.org/livre/1982a.html </ref>).
#A multiple trajectories music is called: polytrajectophonic music, which generate multiple (= poly) andor massive path of sounds flux as birds-cloud with instrumental sound <ref> initiated and developed by the composer Mathius Shadow-Sky with Ludus Musicae Temporarium in 1980: http://centrebombe.org/dansleciel,lebruitdel'ombre.html also with: Unisolable & Unduplicable, the recipe of freedom in 2006 as most of his music works http://centrebombe.org/livre/2006.html</ref> andor with recorded sounds, both trajectorized through computer matrix system and [[spatialisators]] = [[spatial sound processors]].
 
==Examples==
Examples of spatiality include more than seventy works by [[Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina]] (canticles, litanies, masses, Marian antiphons, psalm- and sequence-motets),<ref>Lewis Lockwood, Noel O’Regan, and [[Jessie Ann Owens]], "Palestrina [Prenestino, etc.], Giovanni Pierluigi da [‘Giannetto’]", ''The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', second edition, edited by [[Stanley Sadie]] and [[John Tyrrell (professor of music)|John Tyrrell]] (London: Macmillan Publishers, 2001).</ref> the five-choir, forty- and sixty-voice ''[[Missa sopra Ecco sì beato giorno]]'' by [[Alessandro Striggio]] and the possibly related eight-choir, forty-voice motet ''[[Spem in alium]]'' by [[Thomas Tallis]], as well as a number of other Italian—mainly Florentine—works dating between 1557 and 1601.<ref>Davitt Moroney, "Alessandro Striggio's Mass in Forty and Sixty Parts", ''Journal of the American Musicological Society'' 60, no. 1 (Spring 2007): 1–69.
