The unique architecture of the celebrated St Mark's Basilica in Venice came to be a prime factor in the emergence of a very particular phenomenon in music history, one centred on a group of composers known collectively as the Venetian School. In the late 16th century and early 17th the Basilica's interior, with its vast expanses of space, multiple choir lofts, echoing vaults and seemingly endless sound delay, gave rise to a highly creative approach to the relationship between music and physical space. Singers and instrumentalists were distributed in groups throughout the interior, singing and playing sometimes together but very often in opposition (antiphony), and at varying distances from the organ, which was at the centre of the musical action. The Venetian polychoral style, as it is known, reached its culmination in the works of composer-organist Giovanni Gabrieli.
