"And they
sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the
elders ; and no one could learn the song except the one hundred and forty-four
thousand who had been purchased from the earth.." Revelation 14:3, Bible
Gregorian chant - Christianity, God exists in the form of
praise, sung some pious and sacred Scripture texts. The chanting began in the
early period of Christianity, I-IV century and sixth century has been fully
formed and practically uniform throughout the Roman Empire. Church tradition as
the singing is the highest form of worship ...
The impact of music on
people ... It should be borne in mind that within each genre there are a
variety of styles. Some of them are active and have energy, while others are
passive and help relax...
In the Gregorian chant used by the natural rhythms of
breathing, which allows for a spatial sense of relaxation ... They are well
suited for quiet study and meditation can reduce stress ...
Gregorian chant is the
central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic liturgical music
within Western Christianity that accompanied the celebration of Mass and other
ritual services... Gregorian chant was organized, codified, and notated mainly
in the Frankish lands of western and central Europe during the 10th to 13th
centuries, with later additions and redactions, but the texts and many of the
melodies have antecedents going back several centuries earlier... Gregorian
chant was traditionally sung by choirs of men and boys in churches, or by women
or men of religious orders in their chapels, and is commonly heard in
celebrations of the Tridentine Mass by those Catholics who follow the 1962
Missal. It is the music of the Roman Rite, performed in the Mass and the
monastic Office.... Gregorian chant is, of course, vocal music. The text, the phrases,
words and eventually the syllables, can be sung in various ways. The most
straightforward is recitation on the same tone, which is called
"syllabic" as each syllable is sung to a single tone....
Gregorian chant had a
significant impact on the development of medieval and Renaissance music. Modern
staff notation developed directly from Gregorian neumes. The square notation
that had been devised for plainchant was borrowed and adapted for other kinds
of music. Certain groupings of neumes were used to indicate repeating rhythms
called rhythmic modes....
In today's music, Gregorian chant motives sounds of New
Age music projects - Enigma, Era, E Nomine, Gregorian, Lesiem, E. S. Posthumus works...

Era
Era is a New Age
music project by French composer Eric Lévi.. . The band has sold more than 12
million albums. They use lyrics (by Guy Protheroe) which although similar to
Greek or Latin are in fact deliberately devoid of any exact meaning... Era
mixes Gregorian chants and occasionally world music with contemporary
electronic arrangements. It is reminiscent of New Age music projects such as
Enigma, Gregorian, and Deep Forest. Lyrics are written in Pseudo-Latin and
English, and some are based on beliefs of the 13th century French Christian
sect, the Cathars. .. Era's live shows and music videos often feature artists
dressed in medieval or traditional clothes and armour. Usually, actors Pierre
Bouisierie and Irene Bustamante perform at Era shows...

intertwines popular style drum rhythms with orchestral and electronic sounds.
Their music is inspired by the Pythagorean philosophy which states that
"music is the harmonization of opposites; the conciliation of warring
elements". The E.S. is an acronym for "Experimental Sounds"
while Posthumus is a Dog Latin word that is meant to represent "all things
past" ....

Grigališkasis choralas
"Jie giedojo naują giesmę priešais sostą, keturias būtybes ir
vyresniuosius, ir niekas negalėjo išmokti tos giesmės, išskyrus tuos šimtą
keturiasdešimt keturis tūkstančius, atpirktus iš žemės.." Apr 14,3,
Biblija
Grigališkasis choralas – krikščionybėje egzistuojanti Dievo šlovinimo
forma, kai maldingai giedami liturginiai ir Šventojo Rašto tekstai. Šis
giedojimas prasidėjo ankstyvuoju krikščionybės laikotarpiu, I-IV amžiuose, o VI
amžiuje jau buvo galutinai susiformavęs ir suvienodintas praktiškai visoje
Romos imperijoje. Bažnytinėje tradicijoje laikoma, kad giedojimas yra
aukščiausia Dievo garbinimo forma ... Grigališkajame chorale
yra naudotas natūralaus kvėpavimo ritmas, kuris atsižvelgia
į erdvinę atsipalaidavimo prasmę... tai
labai gerai tinka ramiam mokymuosi,
meditavimui ir apmąstymams ... sumažinama įtampa, ramus atsipalaidavimas ... Moderniojoje muzikoje grigališkųjų
choralų motyvai skamba New Age muzikinių projektų - Enigma, Era, E
Nomine, Gregorian, Lesiem, E. S.
Posthumus - kūriniuose...
