    Gregorian Chant

    GREGORIAN CHANT GREGORIAN CHANT A TEXTBOOK FOR SEMINARIES, NOVITIATES AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS by REV. ANDREW F. KLARMANN Published by GREGORIAN INSTITUTE OF AMERICA TOLEDO, OHIO Imprimatur *MOST REV. THOMAS E. MOLLOY, S.T.D. Bishop of Brooklyn Nihil Obstat REV. JOHN F. DONOVAN Censor Librorum JANUARY 27, 1945 Desclee and Company of Tournai, Belgium, has granted permission to the author to use the rhythmic marks in this textbook. COPYRIGHT, 1945. BY GREGORIAN INSTITUTE PRINTED IN U.S.A. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Dedicated to MOST REVEREND THOMAS E. MOLLOY BISHOP OF BROOKLYN FOREWORD In the following pages Father Klarmann presents a clear, orderly, systematic treatment of liturgical chant. At the very beginning of his treatise he provides an explanation of certain fundamental terms, such as notation, signs, rhythm, chant structure, etc., which is very serviceable in preparing the reader for the fuller development of the general theme in the sub- sequent chapters of this book. With the same thought and purpose the author more particu- larly gives an early definition of the chief subject of discussion, namely, chant, which he defines, in the usually accepted sense, as liturgical music in the form of plain song, which is monophonic, unaccompanied and free in rhythm. Very interestingly also chant structure is explained. The author then proceeds to record the his- torical development of chant at least in its salient features. It is readily understood of course that the Infant Church could not promote a notable advancement in liturgical music during the period of ruthless persecution. And still it seems quite certain that even in the catacombs hymns were used in connection with religious worship.

    TEXT BOOK OF GREGORIAN CHANT ACCORDING TO THE SOLESMES METHOD BY Dom Gregory SUNOL, 0. S. B., Monk of Montserrat TRANSLATED FROM THE SIXTH FRENCH EDITION WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY G. M. DURNFORD OBLATE OF SOLESHES. SOCIETY OF ST JOHN EVANGELIST D£SCLEE & Co Printers to the Holy See and the Sacred Coogr. of Rites TOURNAI (Belgium) PREFACE. Few words are necessary to introduce the present work to English speaking students of plainsong. Such a handbook has long been needed and is sure of its welcome. Neither the well- known Stanbrook Grammar of Plainsong nor Madame Ward's valuable school courses cover so much ground as Dom Gregory Suflol in his Spanish " Metodo ". The book first appeared in 1905, prefaced by a commendatory letter from Dom Andre Mocquereau, the famous director of the Solesmes School. Its author has many years of teaching experience behind him, as well as sound theoret- ical knowledge of his subject. His work has proved its popu- larity and practical usefulness by going through a number of editions in the original Spanish, besides being translated into French and German. Indeed by compressing the Solesmes teach- ing within the narrow limits of a general text book Dom Sufiol has rendered good service to the Gregorian cause. Not everyone has access to the monumental publications of Solesmes, the Mono- graphies gregoriennes or the Paleographie Musicale> and countless students will be glad to find the subject matter of this latter Work, especially the important seventh volume on Gregorian Rhythm, here summed up and analysed, while the extensive quotations from Dom Mocquereau's Nombre Musical gregorien, with which the Spanish author has enriched his later editions, will make them desirous of seeing this fascinating synthesis of the whole subject brought out in English.

    CHAPTER III the Development of Ecclesiastical Chant from the Beginnings Which Have Been So Far Described Was Completed in the Gr

    CHAPTER III A GENERAL SURVEY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LITURGY AND OF THE LITURGICAL CHANT IN THE MIDDLE AGES. x The development of Ecclesiastical Chant from the beginnings which have been so far described was completed in the Greek and Latin Churches in different ways. Yet until the Great Schism (about 1o5o) there were influences on the Latin Liturgy from the Greek, i.e. the Byzantine, which were not without musical results. The question how much the Latin Liturgies in their oldest forms are on the whole indebted to the Greek has not yet received comparative investigation. There are two facts to be especially borne in mind with respect to this : first, until the end of the 3rd century the liturgical language in Rome was Greek, and Latin was only secondarily thus used. S. Paul wrote his Epistle to the Romans in Greek, not in Latin, and all the religious documents preserved to us from early Christian Rome are written in the Greek language. Accordingly at first the Liturgy at Rome was performed in Greek, and thus they sang in Greek. Secondly, the first and most complete development of the liturgical chant took place, as we know, in the countries of the East; it was from thence that the alternate chant of the psalms and the antiphons penetrated to the West, into Italy, Gaul and Spain; and the hymns also. Many roots therefore of the liturgical chant of th~ West extend to the East, to Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria and Constantinople. I The sources for the material which occupies the following chapter on the history of the Liturgy in the Middle Ages are the following : the Ordines Romam·, the old Roman books of ceremonial (printed in Patr.

  • Beethoven, Merryman, St. Pierre

    Beethoven, Merryman, St. Pierre

    Beethoven - Merryman - St. Pierre Performed October 23, 1999 This evening's concert opens with two works which evoke different images of the sea and man's relationship to it: Beethoven's Meerestille und Glückliche Fahrt and Marjorie Merryman's Jonah. Beethoven: Meerestille und Glückliche Fahrt Meerestille and Glückliche Fahrt are two separate poems by Goethe but have always been published back to back and appear to provide a continuous narrative. Their juxtaposition of contrasting elements has inspired their share of musical versions, including Beethoven's 1815 choral setting and Mendelssohn's famous concert overture. The title is often translated as "Calm Seas and Prosperous Voyage", but that fails to convey the sense of the text. Meerestille is better translated as "Becalmed" and the glückliche Fahrt is a happy or successful voyage only in the sense that the travelers finally reach port safely. In the days before steam power, being becalmed at sea was perhaps the worst fate which could befall a ship, and Beethoven does a masterful job not only of conveying the ominous, deadly calm of the ocean but also of suggesting an edge of barely suppressed hysteria. The music brightens as the wind freshens and the prospects of a safe return home suddenly become real, but there is still something a bit frantic about the repeated phrase "schon seh' ich das Land!" (I can already see land!) At the time he was composing Meerestille, Beethoven was also heavily involved in concerts given in conjunction with the Congress of Vienna, which marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars. One of the main attractions was an otherwise eminently forgettable novelty piece of his which enjoyed a brief popularity, Wellington's Victory.
