Special studies include the origins of musical notations, the nuances of early chant performance, musical style and liturgical structure in the early Divine Office, and new sources for Old-Roman chant.
Taking up questions and issues in early chant studies, this volume of essays addresses some of the topics raised in James McKinnon''s The Advent Project: The Later Seventh-Century Creation of the Roman Mass, the last book before his untimely death in February 1999.
