Publisher Description: "This wonderful little book is the chant-equivalent of Dick and Jane...a refreshing way to reduce an idiom carrying with it a mysterious theoretical and stylistic aura to the fundamental, even primal musical language" Haig Maridosian - The American Organist This is the easiest book in print that gets you started reading Gregorian Chant.We do this by printing out the notes and signs as big as they were back in medieval days. Big notes are easier to read and remember. In Gregorian Chant notes are arranged like a train....each note or grouping has a clear purpose and when connected to its neighbors makes up a melody. Join the new schola at your church or school and find yourself confident and comfortable reading Gregorian Chant. More Reviews: Our schola appreciates how effective this book is, seeing these big notes makes it so much easier to recognize them in today's small printed pages that we usually find in churches. |
