How to Compose a Mass

Abstract: A 3 page research paper that takes the unusual form of instructions written to a novice composer of the higher renaissance on how to write a polyphonic Mass. Specifically the instructions refer to the Kyrie. The form of this Mass follows the example of Tomas Luis de Victoria's O magnum mysterium and the instructions draw heavily from a seventeenth century composition on this topic by Pietro Cerone. No additional sources cited.
