Contains 18 reprinted articles, divided into six sections: general chants of the divine office; invitatory tones and antiphons; antiphons; responsories and prosulae; mass chants; and chant sources. Article topics include the music for a Cluny office of St. Benedict; local and regional traditions of the invitatory chant; the parable of the talents in liturgy and chant; the responsories and prosa for St. Stephen's Day at Salisbury; some questions about the Gregorian offertories and their verses; non-psalm verses for introits and communions; and the liturgical and musical tradition of Bec. The articles are drawn from a variety of books, as well as such journals as The Journal of Musicology 3 (Louisville, KY, 1984); Journal of the Plainsong and Mediaeval Music Society 7 (London, 1984); and Musical Quarterly 56 (New York, 1970).
