It has been done by composers like Lassus and Marenzio and Palestrina (the list goes on) who wrote such amazing music in a century when nothing was easy (even procuring paper on which to write!). The hard work has also been done by musicologists like Carl Proske, who spent their lives transcribing ancient manuscripts from which we can now sing!

All we have to do is sing the music, and we have many tools to help us. For example, the members of our group use free computer programs to learn their vocal parts without even leaving the comfort of their homes.
