Description
This project will begin with a translation of Gregorian chants from Latin to English, focusing on the neumes below repeated words and phrases. This will begin my study of the importance of melodic repetition. This will then lead me to a cultural and philosophical study of the importance Gregorian chant ritual had throughout the Middle Ages in not only the Catholic church, but in medieval society as a whole.
