Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of Gregorian Chant, the universal liturgical song of the Latin Church. Stepping back in time, the book delves into the origins of this music, tracing its evolution from ancient spoken Latin to a distinct musical system with its own rules and notation. The author guides readers through the intricate world of Gregorian Chant, explaining its unique melodic and rhythmic structures and how its origins lie in the careful pronunciation of the Latin language. The book goes beyond simply outlining the technicalities of the chant, explaining its historical and cultural significance. It reveals how Gregorian Chant, as a form of musical expression, is deeply intertwined with the liturgy of the Catholic Church and explores how the chant's evolution reflects the development of the liturgy itself. The author's passion for this ancient music is evident throughout, as they offer a practical guide to understanding and interpreting this complex and rich musical tradition. By studying Gregorian Chant, readers gain not only a deeper appreciation for a beautiful and influential form of music but also a window into the history and evolution of Western music itself.
