Christian West and his singers: The First Millenniumby the great English musicologist Christopher Page, Roman chants spread across Europe, and from their prosperity in French monasteries and cathedral singing schools, Christian liturgical music from origins as elaboration of the role of Lecter covers the development of. One of the most important developments was the staged development of the second half of the first millennium notation system, where Guido D’Arezzo gained the invention of the music staff and the singer learned melodies he had never heard before. I was able to do that. Guido was motivated by his desire to reform the monastery’s songs and make it easier for the monks to perform their duties. This went far beyond what can be seen in classical sources, with the development of musical theory.
