Synopsis
This scholarly book presents an in-depth analysis of the twelve modes found in ancient church music, also known as Gregorian chants. These chants were composed based on the ancient Greek Tetrachords, and the simpler forms of Gregorian Tones can be traced back to the third century. The author presents a proper definition of the words authentic and plagal, showing their true significance and usage, and explores the relationship between them. The significance of the dominant note for each mode is thoroughly explained, and the book provides a detailed guide to the construction and use of the twelve modes. The author provides examples of secular changes that have been made to the ancient melodies since the end of the 10th century, and discusses how these changes have affected their original character. This book is a valuable resource for musicians, musicologists, and anyone interested in the history and development of Western music.
