Line 6:
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
#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]].
==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.
