Gregorian Chant and the Carolingians by Kenneth Levy
How many traditions of oral chant existed before the tenth century? What precursors might there have been to the notational system used in all the surviving manuscripts? In answering such questions, this work seeks to change long-held perceptions about certain crucial stages of the evolution and dissemination of the old corpus of plainchant.
Kenneth Levy is Scheide Professor of Music History Emeritus at Princeton University. He is well known for his work in medieval music, particularly Byzantine and Latin plainchant. He is the author of Music: A Listener's Introduction.
