Re-envisioning Past Musical Cultures: Ethnomusicology in the Study of Gregorian Chant (Chicago Studies in Ethnomusicology)

by PJeffery (Author)

From the 6th to the 10th century, Gregorian chants existed only in song as medieval musicians relied on their memories and voices to pass each verse from one generation to the next. This work examines how these melodies were created, memorized, performed and modified.
