The performance of Palestrina: some further observations

O'Regan responds to two articles in the Nov 1994 issue of "Early Music," which raised questions of performance practice in 16th-century Rome. He re-examines one-per-part performance, solo singing with the organ, and whether the students at the German College sang polyphony.
