Imitative counterpoint and homophony were two techniques blended in the High Renaissance to form the compositional style for the Mass, the motet, and the chanson. Imitative counterpoint involves the interweaving of melodic lines that mimic each other, while homophony refers to a texture where all parts move together rhythmically, often supporting a melody.
