More on pope Gregory

Author: 'nifer

Pope Gregory came before much of the chant that we recognise as "gregorian Chant", The myth is that Pope Gregory wrote all of the Gregorian chant inspired by the Holy Spirit but it is probibly not true because of three reasons.
1. Pope Gregory was not a musician.
2. Much of the Gregorian chant repitoire was written north of the alps.
3. Many of the Chants were written in the 7-8-9 centuries.

hope that clears some up!
