Due to new religious denominations occurring during the time of the Renaissance a lot of the music of the time took on religious themes. Churches also wanted music that had simple melodies that wouldn't overpower the teachings of The Bible.
Church music had reached the height of its popularity in the past and was not a main form of music in the Romantic era. The differentiation between an oratorio and other religious music lay within the text, instead of within formal and stylistic factors. Liturgical texts and psalms were set to music more often as festival works for concert performance than as functional church music. Romantic church music was like an oratorio as it employed large choruses, an orchestra, and solo voices. Differing from the oratorio, church music of the time did not have a narrator or make use of a recitative.
People started playing and enjoying music not only in the church but in their homes, too.
The Renaissance era in Western music began in about 1400, in northern Italy.
Renaissance music started to use more polyphony than monophonic. It also started to have music in the background, compared to a Capella. The music was used to entertainment and not just for religious purposes.
