Gregorian chant is the central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic liturgical chant of Western Christianity that accompanied the celebration of Mass and other ritual services. This vast repertory of chants is the oldest music known as it is the first repertory to have been adequately notated in the 10th century. In general, the chants were learnt by the viva voce method, that is by following the given example orally, which took many years of experience in the Schola Cantorum. Gregorian chant originated in Monastic life, in which singing the 'Divine Service' nine times a day at the proper hours was upheld according to the Rule of St. Benedict. Singing psalms made up a large part of the life in a monastic community, while a smaller group and soloists sang the chants. In its long history Gregorian Chant has been subjected to many gradual changes and some reforms.

  • Gregoriansk sång, enstämmig, rytmiskt fri, oackompanjerad liturgisk sång inom den romersk-katolska kyrkan. Uppkallad efter påven Gregorius den store (540-604). Gregoriansk sång är officiell musik inom den katolska kyrkans latinska rit. (sv)
  • La denominación canto gregoriano (también conocido como canto llano) procede de habérsele atribuido su origen al papa San Gregorio Magno, siendo una evolución del canto paleorromano con influencias del canto galicano. Desde su nacimiento, la música cristiana fue una oración cantada, que debía realizarse no de manera puramente material, sino con devoción o, como lo decía San Pablo: «Cantando a Dios en vuestro corazón». El texto era pues la razón de ser del canto gregoriano. En realidad el canto del texto se basa en el principio de que —según san Agustín— «el que canta ora dos veces». El canto gregoriano jamás podrá entenderse sin el texto, el cual tiene prelación sobre la melodía y es el que le da sentido a ésta. Por lo tanto, al interpretarlo, los cantores deben haber entendido muy bien el sentido del texto. En consecuencia, se debe evitar cualquier impostación de voz de tipo operístico en que se intente el lucimiento del intérprete. Del canto gregoriano es de donde proceden los modos gregorianos, que dan base a la música occidental. De ellos vienen los modos mayor y menor, y otros cinco menos conocidos. (es)
  • Gregoriaaninen kirkkolaulu tai frankoroomalainen kirkkolaulu on yksiäänistä, säestyksetöntä laulua. Sen katsotaan syntyneen 500-600-luvuilla. Luokka:Puutteelliset lähdemerkinnät Gregoriaaninen kirkkolaulu on hyvin monimuotoista, ja siinä käytetään erilaisia esitystyylejä ja tapoja käsitellä tekstiä. Perinteisesti kirkkomusiikkia esittivät vain miehet ja alun alkaen nimenomaan papisto messun ja muiden päivittäisten jumalanpalvelusten aikana. Kirkon kasvun myötä papiston ja maallikkojen suhde yksittäisissä kirkoissa kasvoi ja lauluja alkoivat esittää maallikkomiehet. Naisluostareissa nunnat saivat tosin toimia kuorona. (fi)

  • Gregoriansk sang er enstemmig liturgisk sang uten harmonier. Sangformen er oppkalt etter pave Gregor I den store som neppe innførte sangformen slik vi kjenner den i dag, men la både det liturgiske og musikalske grunnlaget for denne. Sangformen brukes som en del av liturgien i Den romersk-katolske kirke. Sangformen har åtte modale skalaer og bruker gjentatte toner som melodien utvikler seg rundt og de musikalske temaene er vevd sammen. I liturgien blir sangen fortrinnsvis framført av kor. (no)
