Excerpt from The Chants of the Vatican Gradual Questions of purely historical interest have been touched upon only as occasion offered. No attempt has been made to portray the historical development of the different Mass formulas, and still less has any critical study of the various readings of texts and melodies been attempted. Nor should the reader expect a systematic introduction to the liturgical year, although the author has made an effort to explain the texts in their proper liturgical setting in the Church year.

Excerpt from A New School of Gregorian Chant In order that the beginner may thoroughly master all the details connected with the rhythm, the notes which are to be accentuated are clearly indicated in the first exercises of Part I over the various groups of notes. It stands to reason that the notes should not burst forth loudly and prominently, and especially that the final notes should die away softly and gently. Beginners can use these signs as a means to help them to read and practise the music, just as a pianist at first gladly avails himself of fingering exercises. More advanced pupils can test their method of execution by means of these signs. In the later exercises only the more important places are marked with the rhythmical accent.

Excerpt from Gregorian Chant for the Teacher, the Choir, and the School While it is, of course, proper to have the whole Mass sung according to the rite of the feast, this rule may be relaxed in the case of a new choir, and the easier settings learned first. When you start your new choir class, don't waste time in trying the voices of the boys. Get as many as you are able to handle easily, and start them all on the first exercises. Boys may be taken as soon as they are able to read. You will soon find out whether you have any one whose ear is deficient, by his not be ing able to follow the tune. You may have some boys who try to sing an octave below. These, and those whose ears seem to be defective, should be taken out of the main class and worked with separately for a time before you finally decide whether you will retain them or not. The choir should have a comfortable practice room one which is used for no other purpose. Besides the seats, coat and hat hooks, book closets, etc., you should have a blackboard and a grand or square piano, which should be always kept in good order. An upright piano is not suitable, because the teacher, when using it, must necessarily turn his back to the class. As Gregorian chant can be sung intelligently from its own notation only, don' t get editions of the chant books ln modern notation. If you do so, you will have to teach your singers to attach to the various signs meanings which do not belong to them; and when you come to the stu modern music, all this work will have to be undone. Don't send your new choir into the church before it is properly the work expected of it. The time required for the preliminary tra course, depend a great deal upon the quality of your raw material.
