    False

    Explanation:

    Vocal music had an important position in the Catholic church, which was the dominant force in Western Europe, cultural and political, therefore many of the most highly respected composers specialized in vocal music.

    But, at the same time, it was a period for study and development of arts, so humanists studied ancient Greek treatises on music, which discussed the close relationship between music and poetry, and the way that music could stir the listener's emotions.

    Inspired by that studies, Renaissance composers fit words and music together in an increasingly dramatic fashion, that is how opera and other genders alike were created.
