Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (circa 1525 – 2 February 1594) was an Italian Renaissance composer of Sacred Music and the best-known 16th-Century representative of The Roman School of Musical Composition. He had a lasting influence on the development of Church Music, and his work has often been seen as the culmination of Renaissance Polyphony.
