REVIEW QUESTIONS (Focus on pp. 293-309)
1.  What is a "paraphrase mass"?  What is a "parody" or "imitation" mass?  How was the development of these two types of masses related to a musical style marked by "pervading imitation"?
2.  There are a number of masses written at the turn of the 16th century that are not cantus-firmus masses, paraphrase masses or parody masses.  Describe some of these masses.
