THE BEGINNER'S BOOK OF CHANT
By a Benedictine Monk
A monk of St. Michael's Abbey in England carefully constructed this primer with the clear intention of helping chant maintain its rightful "pride of place" in the liturgy. This is no "Idiot's Guide" or in-depth history. Rather, it focuses on practical tutorials, rehearsal methods and hints which aim to have the musically aware reader singing masses by book's end. Excellent for choir directors. Final chapters deal with accompaniment, vernacular adaptations and FAQ's. Appendices explore modes, neumes, glossary, reading and more.
Paperback, 90 pages.
