Intro

ArsNovaMusic

Can refer either specifically to a style from France and the Low Countries roughly between 1310 and 1377 or to all European polyphonic music of the same time period. Ars Nova features rhythmic innovations over the Ars Antiqua, including notational developments such as the isorhythm that made it possible for composers to write more rhythmically sophisticated pieces than rhythmic modes previously allowed. The polyphonic innovations made in the sacred realm in the previous century began to spread into the secular realm in the 14th century.
