Gregorian Chant: A Textbook For Seminaries, Novitiates And Secondary Schools by Andrew F. Klarmann is a comprehensive guide to the history, theory, and practice of Gregorian chant. The book is specifically designed for use in seminaries, novitiates, and secondary schools, and is intended to provide students with a solid foundation in the study and performance of this ancient form of liturgical music. The book begins with a brief history of Gregorian chant, tracing its origins back to the early Christian church and the development of plainchant in the Middle Ages. Klarmann then covers the theoretical aspects of chant, including the modes, rhythms, and notation used in its composition. The second half of the book is devoted to practical instruction, with detailed explanations of the various types of chants used in the liturgy, as well as instructions on how to read and interpret the notation. Klarmann also provides guidance on vocal technique and interpretation, drawing on his extensive experience as a choir director and music educator. Throughout the book, Klarmann emphasizes the importance of chant as a spiritual practice, and encourages readers to approach it with reverence and devotion. The book is accompanied by a CD of recordings, which provides examples of the chants discussed in the text. Overall, Gregorian Chant: A Textbook For Seminaries, Novitiates And Secondary Schools is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the study and performance of this rich and ancient form of liturgical music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
