Gregorian Chant ~ square note music question?
Question by Marysia: Gregorian Chant ~ square note music question?
Our music director is using this a lot more for chants, especially during distribution of the Eucharist. Does anyone know of any on line classes or books to help learn this better. So far, I have to admit, I’ve gotten it down but would really like to learn more. I will ask him as well but am not about to put anything more on his plate as we prepare for the Easter services.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

There are really no online classes, but maybe you can check youtube.com. I do know there are videos of Advanced Studies in Gregorian Chant by Dom Saulnier. Hope this helps!
