## Commentary

At one time Michele was thought to have been the pupil of Domenico Morone; today, the range of influences that went into his formation is believed to include Diana, Alvise Vivarini and the late Giovanni Bellini. Thus he was not strictly a provincial product, but operated within the sphere of a strongly archaising purism. The Crucifixion is Michele&#39;s masterpiece, with its unusual cold colour and silvery reflections. &lt;P&gt; &lt;TABLE ALIGN=LEFT CELLPADDING=5 BORDER=1 WIDTH=320 BGCOLOR=&#34;\#99CCCC&#34;&gt; &lt;TR VALIGN=MIDDLE&gt;&lt;TD&gt;&lt;IMG SRC=&#34;/support/gif/listen.gif&#34; BORDER=0 VALIGN=MIDDLE&gt; Suggested listening \(streaming mp3, 22 minutes\):&lt;BR&gt;&lt;A HREF=&#34;\#&#34; onClick=&#34;w=window.open \(&#39;/music1/16\_cent/palestrina\_missa\_brevis.html&#39;, &#39;newWin&#39;, &#39;scrollbars=yes,status=no,dependent=yes,screenX=0,screenY=0,width=350,height=350&#39;\);w.opener=this;w.focus\(\);return true&#34;&gt;&lt;B&gt;Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina: Missa brevis&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/A&gt; &lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;
