A Gregorian Chant Handbook
William Tortolano
"Gregorian chant is sung prayer and has been a central
expression of beauty and musical excellence for many centuries."
– William Tortolano
Today's chant renaissance has created a need for effective
teaching tools. A Gregorian Chant Handbook is a worthy resource
in this time of renewed interest in chant and its heightened
use. It is intended to teach musicians how to read chant (square
note) notation and to provide an understanding of chant phrasing,
interpretation, style, modes, psalmody, and the art of conducting
chant.
This book also contains information on the structure of the
Mass, Latin diction and pronunciation, a selection of practical
repertoire in Latin and English, and a brief list of bibliographical
resources. A Gregorian Chant Handbook is the ideal resource
for pastoral musicians who want to incorporate chant into
parish worship.

More Sublime Chants
This beautiful recording includes Gregorian,
Ambrosian, Mozarabic, and Sarum chants, many being recorded
for the very first time! Chants for Advent, Christmas, Lent,
and Easter are included, as are two mass settings. More Sublime
Chant also features the complete Office of Compline, sung
in English. The chants are realized in proportional, modal,
and equalist rhythms, employing organum, drones, tone clusters,
and ornamentation. The use of recorders, handbells, and small
percussion, combined with the enchanting voices of The Cathedral
Singers and the warm acoustics of Chicago's Columbus Hospital
Chapel, make this recording yet another "must-have" for
any music lover!
