• The Medieval period is also known as the Middle Ages
or ―Dark Ages that started with the fall of the Roman
Empire. During this time, the Christian Church influenced
Europe’s culture and political affairs.
• Monophonic plainchant was named after Pope Gregory
I, who made this the approved music of the Catholic
Church. Pope Gregory’s action made monophonic
plainchants popular. Although it was originally
transmitted orally, scholars agreed to put it in notation to
assist dissemination of chants across
Europe.
Characteristics of the Gregorian Chants:
• Monophonic
• Free meter
• Modal
• Usually based on Latin liturgy
• Use of Neume notation
The music sheet below is a notated Gregorian
Chant written in Neumes:
• During the latter part of the Medieval Period, secular
music which was not bound by Catholic traditions
emerged. Most of these songs were performed across
Europe by groups of musicians called Troubadours.
• Troubadour Music:
• -Usually monophonic
• -Sometimes with improvised accompaniment
• -Tells of chivalry and courtly love
• -Originated in France
• -Written in the French language
•
