Collection: Gregorian Chant
Gregorian Chant, a cornerstone of Western sacred music, is a haunting and mesmerizing form of monophonic, unaccompanied vocal music that originated in medieval Christian liturgy. This ancient genre, rooted in the Medieval period, features Latin texts sung in a free rhythm that flows with the natural cadence of the words. The ethereal, floating melodies of Gregorian Chant are characterized by their use of modes rather than modern scales, creating a timeless and otherworldly atmosphere. As a vital part of Musique Ancienne (early music), Gregorian Chant has influenced countless composers throughout history and continues to captivate listeners with its serene, contemplative nature and rich cultural heritage.
