Product Description

The Music of the Catholic Church traces the development of the Church’s music through the ages by placing the current liturgical musical landscape into proper historical context. By highlighting the common principles that the Church has used over time in addressing the expressive and formative dynamic of music, this work is able to present an informed discussion about the future so that the elements of spiritual solemnity, transcendance, and beauty will be maintained, along with the expressive nature of contemporary music.

The Music of the Catholic Church highlights six key events in Church history:

- Development of Gregorian Chant
- Reforms of John XXII
- Reforms of the Council of Trent
- Reforms of Benedict XIV
- Reforms of Pius X
- Reforms of the Second Vatican Council
