 Christian churches used liturgical chants for worshiping, an idea borrowed from the ancient Jews.  Pre-800: chants differed by region  Post-800: Emperor Charlemagne forced all churches to adopt Gregorian chants.

 Church believed music had great power to inspire or corrupt people; Should be the “servant” of the Church.  Didn’t use instruments or beats because they were characteristic of “evil” secular music.  Monophonic (melody only), speech-like, words were always scripture or mass text, in Latin.  Music notation invented by Guido of Arezzo around 1000 AD, so chants were written down and survived until today.

 Chant: a “musical prayer” sung by an individual, choir, or congregation.  Liturgy: The sacred texts set to music in chants.  Mode: The specific scale in which the chant is written.

 In Monasteries: Sext, Nones, Vespers. (chanting psalms and scripture passages, singing hymns and canticles.)  In Churches: Mass  Kyrie (“Lord have mercy on us”)  Gloria (“Glory to God in the Highest”)  Credo (“I believe in one God...”)  Sanctus (“Holy, holy, holy”)  Agnus Dei (“Lamb of God”)  Funeral Service: Requiem Mass

 Chanted Gospel Reading  Gregorian Chant  Ut Queant Laxis
