some similarities between medieval and renaissance music would be the type of notation used (the type developed by the end of the medieval period was used in the renaissance too.) also the cantus firmus(using a given melody to compose a polyphonic work)was still used but maybe more freely. the formes fixes such as the rondeaux, viralaie and ballades were still used up to a certain point in the renaissance. its mostly the change from focussing on the technical side of music in the medieval period to making music for expression and meaning in the renaissance. well thats just what i think anyway!
