message: Propono altrum verbum: tonus ecclesiasticus.
Modus est interpretatio verbi graeci  et referet margo melodiarum (). Tonus invicem habet non solum unam melodiam, sed etiam plurimas: . Formulae melodiae sunt intonationes () ut anima certi toni, cuncta formula certae melodiae (melius: certi melus) constituit incisiones secundum textum cantus (periodus, membrum, articulus), terminationes apertae vel fortes vel concludentes. Una melodia () componere cantum exemplum est. Quisque tonus habet propriam psalmodiam atque differentias (terminationes psalmodiae adaptatas ad initium antiphonarum). 
Igitur musicologia loquit de synthesi inter theoriam antiquitatis et musicam praesentem (cantus planus ordinatus secundum octo tonos). Nomina ut lydius, dorius, hypodorius referrent modos: F—c—f, D—a—d, A—D—a etc. referrent locos et tribuos. Nunc sunt nomina octo tonorum cantus ecclesiastici. Tamen secundum institutionem harmonicarum lydius non erat speciem octavae D—d, sed e—E aeta antiqua. Non sapimus ut synthesis erat facta.

Tonus ecclesiasticum debet psalmodiam, echemata, usum intervallorum (atque diesum) et formulas melus tractare, sed etiam verbum apud Graecos «sonus» (ὁ ἦχος) est. «Sonus» valet articulum proprium quod differentiae ne sunt tantae. Melius est invicem articulum unum titolatum Oktoechos ubi octi toni tonarius (apud Franci) et Patriarchatibus Hierosolimitanum (tractatus dictus Hagiopolites, etsi scriptum monasterio Studionis) et Constantinopolitanum (enechemata cantus cathedralis Sanctae Sophiae) tractati sunt, idem cunctae differentiae inter eos.

==Usus et forma tonarius==
Primum tonarium notus est fragmentum in psalterio monasterii Sancti Richarii saeculi VIII inventum. Istud tonarium erat partem psalterii, sed nondum iunctum ad psalmodiam psalmorum et canticorum quod pauci canti Missae sunt indicati, non solum antiphonae, sed etiam offertoria (OFF). Utilitas pristinorum tonarium erat classificationem toni canto plano generaliter. In breviaribus et sacramentaribus ut sacramentarium graduale Sancti Dionysii sunt solum rubrices tonales margine paginae.  
Tonarium potest introductionem in antiphonarium ut antiponarium Hartkeris Coenobio Sangallense cum indice antiphonarum completo in ordinem terminationum in psalmodia nominati «differentiae» seu «figurae».Ad initium (pagina 1) doxologium breve est scriptum in letteris maiusculis «GLORIA PATRI ET FILIO / ET SPIRITUI SCO[*] SICUT / ERAT IN PRINCIPIO ET / NUNC ET SEMPER [ET IN] E U A E U O U A E» cum neumis sangallensis supra, deinde «SECULORUM AMEN» cum neumis. Paginae tonarius sunt separatae in duo libros antiphonarii (codices 390 et 391 ad initium) sine ordine, sed in magna perturbatione. Restitutio tonarius est addendum ad cod, sang. 390 ab manu recentiore (pp. V1-V4) atque quae paginae sunt perditae seu laesae. Appendix tonarius libro graduale tractat solum genera cantuum antiphonalium Missae introit et communio. Exemplum est tonarium libro graduale monasterii Einsiedeln quo solum pars communionum conservatus est. Communius est libellus tonarius tropario-prosario ut tropario-prosarium Ademari ubi libellus tonarius (quaequinque pars libellum appelatur) incipit cum parte supra antiphonarium (antiphonae et responsoria) (f.251) et deinde cum parte supra librum gradualem (f.255), hinc cuncta genera cantuum Missae indicati sunt. Quoque tonarium sub formam tactatum notatus est, inde potest esse partem collectionis tractatuum de musica ut tonarium Hogeri Werdensis cum diagrammis notationis Dasianae, tonarium Bernonis Prumiensis cum neumis sangallensis manuscripto monasterii Laureshamensis ubi differentiae sub nomina graeca secundum Hucbaldem ordinati sunt, vel tonarium cum neumis italicis collectione Archicoenobii Montis Casini. Tonarium unicum est librum gradualis tonarius monasterii Sancti Benigni scriptum sub abbatem Willelmum Volpianis ubi cuncta genera cantuum Missae sunt separata in libellos. Quisque libellus est subdivisus octo partibus secundum ordinem octo tonorum. Deinde Willelmus continuavit ut abbatem conditorem in Normannia ubi sua notatio est diffusa.

text: ::::I inserted now everything that you see, how it works, the suggested changes of the introductory section have less unknown terms (that you sing also cantica, not canticula—it is actually an anglicism, just think of canticum canticorum, another poetic part of the Tanakh, and there you are–, with psalmody, you treat in an own article about psalmody which does not exist yet). I did not change the syntax of the existing period, but just replaced certain terms by more adequate ones. I also moved one of the pictures from the gallery into the text, that you see how to integrate them. For the picture of William of Volpiano's tonary, you need to do a proper analysis (have a look here).

replies: text: :::::The Latin text began as a translation of the English article; you'd have greater influence in the world of information by directing your efforts at improving the English text. ¶ An articulus in classical Latin is basically a 'joint, knuckle, finger', with extended senses of a 'single word' in grammar and a 'heading, part, section' in texts. For the English word article in reference to newspapers, magazines, or encyclopedias, you probably want the Latin commentariolus or commentarius or commentatio or even res.

replies: text: ::::::I know, the «commentarius» like the «glossae» at the margin is rather this page, why not «argumentum», even «vox» or «index vocis»? Just to remind you, I used it that way above talking about the syntax of language and how to rebuild it in chant (the hand was also used as a metaphor for the period, thus you have «membra» and «articuli»). But «res» is also not the right word (although I love the philosophical implication that one has to stay with the things referred here, not with lunatic definitions, exactly the motivation of the rich exchange here!), because it refers to the "subject" of the article (the term works in Italian, never in Latin). The correct term by the way for an encyclopædia in English is entry, better than article which rather refers to a contribution in a journal. But nevertheless, the modern term article stems from the finger-part, not the other way round, and the same is true for "period" which still exists in English with the original meaning until the present day.

text: ::::::What can we do for it? As I already wrote, using this language as you do here is a privilege, because you do understand the proper meaning of any word in the original sense!

text: ::::::By the way, the original article "Octoechos" became very long and some administrators insisted to split it chronologically into three parts. But they made this additional article to refer to its three parts and others put many other contents to it afterwards. I would not waste a second to improve all this nonsense, because if you read my articles, you will already understand why John of Damascus could not have invented the Octoechos. Just do it, if you like! This is, why I mentioned four articles. The three parts refer all to Byzantine music history which is probably not so useful here.

text: ::::::For this very reason I suggested here (see above) to refer it geographically (1) to the Oktoechos of sticherarion notation (the so-called Hagiopolitan Oktoechos) which was the model for the Western tonary, even if the treatise called «Hagiopolites» was obviously an introduction to the unnotated chant book «tropologion» in the Constantinopolitan redaction (of the Mone Stoudiou). There the hymnography was oriented to the Patriarchate of Jerusalem, while the (2) Oktoechos of the cathedral rite at Hagia Sophia (with liturgical and court cermonies) was quite different. As I said the former was the basis on which Carolingian cantors invented their tonary with (3) an Oktoechos of their own design.

text: ::::::I did not correct the term Gregorian chant (although the use in plural is extremely weird to say the least! Note that my source list offers more specific groups, I admit «Alamanniae» is pretty weird, too, but St Gall neumes were not only used in the Alpine aerea around Lake Constance, but in southern and central Germany, Switzerland and Austria) in the article, because there is not such a thing like an Ambrosian or Roman tonary. But the name "Gregorian" derived from an illusion, because Charlemagne asked Pope Hadrian for a sacramentary of Gregory the Great whom Charlemagne imagined to be the founder of the Schola cantorum. Of course, Hadrian gave him a contemporary one which was a «Hadrianum», not a «Gregorianum»! Those philologists who call it «Gregorianum» are everything, but not historians!

Please look up yourself, how it works! If you do not like the italics you have to change the style sheets (which work slightly differently according to the language). But since you would like to change the format within one field, you should use an extra field for the "date", but I am not sure it works with Roman numbers:

text: *.

text: You see, it does! The matter is not closed, how it looks here, because you have to see how it works with applications like a zotero plugin, just to tell you that there was reason, why I put so many information into the field "work": just to do it as simple as possible (in Latin it is quite a challenge, how to build it in own period)! But you are limited here, you can use two dates connected with a middle long stroke, if the datation roughly says 11th century, you must choose a precise number like "ML". I guess that can be fixed to your satisfaction.

text: As you can see, you can also specify another field for location. Thus, we can easily avoid that I have to use the combination of ablativus and genitivus. So far, I preferably used the genitivus for the provenance like: «Tonarium libro... abbatiae...(anno)».

text: 2) With «Tonarium tropario et sequentiario Augiense» I actually meant "Tonary within the Troper-sequentiary of Reichenau" and used the ablativus. Was I wrong?

text: 3) A description such as «sub differentias cum notationis sangallensis» means psalmody sorted under «differentiae» (acc.pl.) (the term means psalmody endings) which are notated with St Gall neumes (expressed here as instrumentalis constructed with ablativus plural by use of the conjunction «cum»). It is not genitive singular, but ablative plural (notatio is feminine): «notationibus sangallensibus». I changed it to the singular since I did not use the term neume.

Thus, I wrote so much about Greek loanwords here which have become in modern languages the loanword of a loanword! When Hannah Arendt wrote her book about totalitarianism, she also dealt with her mother tongue where this term, almost unpronounceable in English, was just "totale Herrschaft".

Unfortunately, when you really know them, you also know that you should not waste any time with them, because otherwise, they will get even worse. In other languages they could develop contents much further–for the very simple reason that edits do not need to be approved. The key is to be friendly and encouraging (which I think you are), and interfere less (which was quite ok here, but you got a lot of feedback, probably too much for your taste). There can be no doubt that less interference is much less demanding and also less work, but maybe you like here a familiar atmosphere and I do respect that...

text: :::::::: ? I am not sure how you could find this Q&A here more useful than the scholia I wrote in the article, when at the end of the day it is the article that needs to be modified.

text: :::::::: : I perfectly understand your point. What you don't understand though is that the Latin you access is medieval Latin, which not always takes into account how Latin was before and how it became afterwards. Musical modes have not been discussed in Latin only by medieval people, which means that medieval nomenclature might need contextualization. Furthermore this is Wikipedia, and even Suetonius sometimes might need to be “wikified” before being transcribed here. --Grufo (disputatio) 12:59, 21 Maii 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: :::::::::Be assured there is no tag language in the world that can replace a personal exchange. You are quite fluent in it (I was amazed by it!), but I fear it was rather wasted on me.

text: :::::::::1) : Not by me, I am afraid! I just moved the picture from the gallery and added a verification of the source in the caption. But in the role of a Latin student I would say «notum». I can only guess that the contributor wished to say "one of the oldest known sources for a tonary" which I would translate as «unum fontem notum antiquissimum tonarium conservatum»

text: :::::::::2) : I might remind you that I suggested in the first section, where we discussed the title of the whole article and if it needs to be moved, to use both forms in a flexible way. I guess that Aquitanian cantors would definitely use the expression «libellus tonarius» and then «tonarius» is a genitive and tonarius is a u-declination like melus which has according to my poor Latin the other genitive plural ending. But if you decide to use it here as a conventional neutrum declination in order to avoid a confusion of the reader, I would leave the last word to you or you insert ū.

text: :::::::::3) : I am aware of it, but here I refer to a contribution by Peter Jeffery who used the Latin expression «a posteriori» in English. I can insert the reference, if you like. The argument is that Greek  used between the 5th and 12th centuries have been a chant book without musical notation, but a modal signature like πλ Β to indicate the  (sonus in Latin) of the hymn. Here the signature decides what the cantor does. Concerning the tonary we deal with a modal classification a posteriori which decides about the tonus.

text: :::::::::4) : I actually prefer the genitive singular of tonus, cantus planus is a pars pro toto, it could be introitus, communio, also offertorium or any other chant genre, but you decide whether ablative or genitive is better.

text: :::::::::5)  and : I am always lost, when I have to use the ending -ibus and when -iis.

text: :::::::::6) : A note at the margin as I already wrote. If you have a look at the manuscript you see that a later hand added a symbol of tonal classification either according to the Byzantine or Hucbald's system to each hymn in the book of Mass chant (therefore Gradual). In case of the Gradual-Sacramentary of Saint Denis, it is the Byzantine system. At the height of the communio «Dominus dabit benignitatem» (f. A1', first page of the Gradual beginning with Advent) there is a modal signature A PROT at the margin for «Autentus Protus». The scribe did not care to classify any other chant of the same Mass.

text: :::::::::Of course, I do understand the difference between Middle and Classical Latin, since I was instructed with the classical texts like anyone else. I also do understand the stylistic differences. But so far I came not across users who are able to build periods the way Cicero did, and I assume that sticking to classical vocabulary has more to do with dictionaries used here which is rather laziness than confronting the question, whether such limitation is useful for medieval subjects. In my professional context it is the discussion which is an Ancient term stemming from harmonics, and which of them like tonus and sonus are used as medieval terms with a specific meaning related to medieval church music. Aristoxenos did not know a term like . It did not exist yet. And if someone says that the octave D—d is supposed to be Dorian, not even Boethius could have understood what gave you this idea! This is what our whole discussion here is about! The LmL is very good, really wonderful, but the Greek language is missing and I know the editors well enough that I would even say I doubt that they do know and understand the Ancient Greek context. It is a deficit, a bilingual form would be more adapted to the subject! Platonykiss (disputatio) 14:14, 21 Maii 2024 (UTC)

text: And indeed they both appear in the page. But to which one of the two forms (i.e. tonarius or tonarium) would “Utilitas pristinorum tonarium” belong? What case is “tonarium” in that sentence?

text: If you are aware, why did you write “classificationem” in the accusative case?

text: You wrote “classificationem toni canto plano”, which I would translate as “Classification in a plain song of the mode” (btw, the ablative of cantus is cantu).

text: But then why instead of thanking and trying to learn you protest when someone tries to help?

text: Could you quote one dictionary in which the word “rubrices” appears? And, once again, what do the other things that you did not address mean?

text: On the contrary, I am touched that you pay so much attention to my mistakes.

text: I apologise that I left one of your questions unanswered. The translation of  is:

text: "This particular tonary was part of a psalter, but not yet in combination with psalmody of psalm verses and canticles [you see that I even saved your idea to mention cantica here, but I postponed it for the discussion of this early source, since it is a psalter which has the canticles as well, but its tonary's focus on Mass chant, where canticles do usually not appear except for the Old Gallican rite, has nothing to do with a psalter! Nevertheless, since this is just a fragment, one might guess that this early tonary had already a lost second part treating the psalmody of the antiphonary related to antiphonae and responsoria prolixa.] because just a few Mass chant was listed here, not only introits and communiones [which are sung as refrain during psalmody], but also graduals, alleluia verses, and offertoria. [You can change the order of the items adapted to my translation, if it makes more sense for you, in the Latin text I just followed the order of the Mass as in the tonary, because it refers to the picture.]"

text: The other example, also quoted here in the complete context: , I would translate this way:

text: "The use of early tonaries was the classification of the church tone in plainchant in general a posteriori/ afterwards [in the sense of applied afterwards to an existing oral transmission of plainchant. You see that I avoided to apply the plural as you did above with Gregorian chant, because the plural for such a term since it means a memory for a local repertoire, is problematic and also not so elegant. The use of ablative here separates the modal classification from plainchant, while a doubled genitive might confuse some readers.]."

text: The footnote explains that this Latin expression was chosen by Peter Jeffery, that a modal classification was deduced in tonaries, but implied in the Eastern chantbook  or , because another modal signature set before a hymn text would simply change the whole melody.

text: This is important as a characterisation of the tonaries' nature, but back to the beginning. This early kind of tonary, though it was copied by the same hand, does not really fit to a psalter, because the psalmody and its differentiae were not properly explained or notated by letters or neumes as they were in later tonaries. It was nothing more than a modal classification and here also used to classify the church tone of genres like offertorium, responsorium graduale and alleluia verse. They had either no psalmody of psalm verses as in the former case, or a more elaborated recitation of a short psalm (in Milan also called «psalmellus») like during the latter ones, where a specialised cantor recited the psalmellus as a soloist between the repetition of the responsorium by the choir. But concerning its musical morphology psalmody as melodic pattern (formulae melus) was the basis, as the hexameter was concerning the psalms as one of the poetic parts of the Tanakh (other parts were composed as prosa and must be read, while these poetic parts like the biblical odes were sung).

replies: text: :Rubrica: probably a term such as «symbolum tonale» could do the job together with an explanation «secundum Hucbaldem ad exemplum VII. per tonum septimum vel secundum terminologiam byzantinam ad exemplum A Tetr per autentum tetrardi». The latter was used in the Gradual-Sacramentary of Saint Denis. The tonary fragment of Saint Riquier and these rubrified symbols on the margin of a sacramentary might look quite different on a first sight, but their purpose was just modal classification and nothing more. Thus, not too useful in a psalter, but at least you could choose the psalmody according to a certain church tone. Platonykiss (disputatio) 08:31, 22 Maii 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: :: I am not at all focused on your mistakes – in fact I only signaled them in the article, as it is the duty of anyone who cares about Vicipaedia. You, on the contrary, wanted to open an entire discussion here about them.

text: ::* As I wrote in my scholium, istud maps codesto in Italian; would you use codesto in that case? If the answer is no, then you have to replace istud with hoc.

text: ::* As for the first sentence that I marked with , what I don't understand is “quod pauci canti Missae sunt indicati”: with “indicati” do you mean “reported”, “listed” (i.e. transcribed)? In that case I would just rewrite it as “quia pauci sunt cantūs Missae”. If you really want to use the verb “to list”, you can use “enumemerare”. “Indicare” here does not work.

text: ::* The plural of cantus is cantūs.

text: ::* Tonarius  is not a word. It's either tonarius  or tonarium . So the genitive plural is only tonariorum.

text: ::* Rubrices is not a word either; the word you are looking for is rubrica  – but I still do not understand its usage here. If it is a particular meaning used in the middle age, you can add double quotes around the (corrected) word followed by an explanation of the special meaning in brackets. That is: «sunt “rubricae” tantum tonalium ( … [ACCLARATIO VERBI “RUBRICAE”] …) apud marginem paginae».

replies: text: :::All I understand from your remarks is that I chose the words well. I never used codesto in Italian, but it seems right here. It is not «enumerare», I think you got seduced by the term item I used. It is neither a transcription. As an ethnologist I do often transcriptions fixing the precise pronunciation by IPA symbols and using notations that people in my field do not always understand. How can I explain? If you use mensural notation for Troubadours chant you might call such a reception a transcription (because the rhythm of Troubadours chant has nothing in common with the philosophy of mensural chant, you do something that does not really work). Just risk a look at the manuscript and you will understand immediately. The picture is right there. The tonary has nothing else than the incipit which is basically the representation of chant in every breviary. The text has nothing strange for cantors, because they used sacramentaries, where the whole text was written down as you can see in the sacramentary of Saint Denis. The melody they knew by heart!

text: :::The adjective «pauci» is important, because German philologists like Hartmut Möller made a distinction of the short form, which means the list just offer some examples, but is not complete, while Hartker tried hard to list all antiphons which do exist in the antiphonary. The Germans call the latter case full tonary, thus Saint Riquier is the short form, while Hartker made a full tonary. I personally prefer the term full tonary to point at the fully notated version of William of Volpiano. Thus, even under risk to appear here overcritically, I think indicate works fine. It is definitely not «quia pauci sunt cantūs Missae», it does not mean that if few examples appear here that this was the whole repertoire of mass chant as your choice of words insinuate, but there is no doubt that all of these few examples are taken from the Holy Mass, not from anywhere else. I think I made myself clear about it with my guess that there might have been a second part for the other chant book antiphonary, even if it is just guess-work. A psalter is just a psalter, it does not matter, where psalmody appears. The book was usually used by monks to memorise the text as a whole, and according to the Benedictine rule, it should be done within two weeks, that the whole psalter was recited with psalmody. Well... theory and practice! But there can be no doubt, that the division of the psalter was essential to memorise it (in Byzantium the term was kathismata and it was also organised in liturgical cycles).

text: :::Forget about the term "rubrica", it just sprang to my mind, since this modal signatures had been written at the margin, but my last suggestion should work to refer to these signatures.

replies: text: :::: : Of course!

replies: text: :::::I understand this must be frustrating.

text: :::::I try to say it this way, a demonstrativum which has a deictic quality that an English translation like "Such a particular tonary like this here" would fit (as reference to the inserted picture). I do not know, if your description is helpful, but at least you mentioned nothing to object against its use here. It refers to its context like the preceding period, but as well to the picture.

text: :::::I chose the verb indicare, since the term index is in it. Maybe as the master of tags here you have also in wiki certain symbols. Enumerate in wiki would be #, right? Now have a look at the manuscript. Do you see items listed by numbers in the manuscript? I do not.

text: :::::There are items, but in wiki they are organised *. But if you have a close look at the early fragment, you see that the items are ordered in some way. First "A" which means «antiphona ad introitum», then "RG" which means «responsorium graduale», then "All" which means «versus alleluiaticus», then "OF" which means «offertorium», and finally "adc" which means «antiphona ad communionem».

text: :::::This order corresponds to the one of proper mass chant in the order as it appears during the celebration of the mass (the introit is the one sung entering the church, then those in connection with scriptural lessons etc.) which in Latin is called «proprium missae» which means the chant of every day or better: the chant that changes everyday. If you have some experience with those manuscripts, Latin or Greek, you can further check (even if there are just few items for each chant genre), how is the order between the items of each category. Whether Greek or Latin, the order is either beginning with advent until the feasts of November like Saint Martin, or like the order established by the Stoudites monks who started the sanctoral with 1 September, the feast of Symeon Stylitis, until the end of August (also Slavic manuscripts are organised that way). And if the sanctoral is not separated from the cycle of moveable feasts, the latter usually begins after the 2 February of the sanctoral with Septuagesima (the long Lenten tide) and ends with Pentecost or Allsaints (since Orthodox Christians celebrate it one week after Pentecost).

text: :::::Trust me, I wrote you everything you need to know, how the items are organised or might be organised! And yes, there might be a reason, why I chose here certain terms and not others. But if you have a suggestion, let me know it, and we will see, if it is really better. Forgive me, if this is not always the case. My Latin is a baby language that is not always comprehensible (or usually incomprehensible). You can see that I thought about the details carefully, but only a few readers will grasp all of them. My suggestion is to elaborate further on it. Maybe just one short period, that this is a short form with just few examples. Then explain step by step the principles, how the items are organised.

text: :::::Really important is only that the function of the early tonaries is to find the «tonus» in the sense of church tone behind each chant. In English you can also say mode, because it refers broadly as an ethnomusicological term to any kind of melody type, even raga in India or dastgah in the Persian speaking countries. But do not try this in Latin, since it lacks precision. The church tones are more alive in practice, the term «modus» concerns the melodic frame which can change to other species of the fourth (tetrachordum) or the fifth (pentachordum). If you have a composition classified as «tonus secundus» according to Hucbald, the beginning might start modestly within a third between D and F and the melos might later rise to a G, then it changes in such a profound way that D is no longer base note, but C as if C—G is now the melodic frame (which is another species of pentachord). But it all is included in the term «tonus secundus» without having changed to another one.

Officially you are absolutely right, this is supposed to be collective work (and I usually ask other colleagues who are experts in the field to have a second look at articles), but unofficially it usually is someone's, you learn that quite early from certain reactions... In my defense I can at least say that I only delete contents in case they are profoundly wrong or just misleading, but usually I try hard to integrate everything I find, even your canticles! Forgive me for saying so, but I think you categorically avoid istud, but in this particular case I am still convinced, it is what I was looking for. If you will later correct it, I will accept it anyway.

text: :::::::You might be interested about how to find out about the calendaric order of the chant incipits. In musicology we have many databases, but there is also a less historical one which might also attract non-musicologists to use. It is not so historical, but relates to a current vision of so-called "Gregorian chant" as officially canonised by the Vatican. It is a Belgian website, its name derives from « chant grégorien »:

text: :::::::https://gregorien.info

text: :::::::And it can be used to find out to which Mass during the year each chant belongs. The page cannot only be used in French, but also in English and German. It also provides links to digitised manuscripts. But the first incipit in the introitus group, you will not find there. It does not mean, it did not exist, but that it does not belong to the officially accepted mainstream repertoire. Many examples of the Gregorian chant redaction have not been officially accepted, including the «hymnus trium puerorum» which has not been printed in the Graduale triplex. One has also to be a singer of exceptional skills to sing it. Platonykiss (disputatio) 21:30, 23 Maii 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: :::::::: Thank you for the Chant grégorien website. I have not been able to find the Hymnus trium puerorum though. Is it this one? I have a Graduale Triplex at home, but I have not been opening it for many years (I am not specialized in medieval music). The rule about iste is pretty simple: you never use it unless you are in a direct speech with an interlocutor. I used it earlier in this talk page when I wrote « “fontes primarios” quaeris, at  non sunt semper praeferendi …». The pronoun is called “the demonstrative of the second person” for a reason. You can easily translate istud with “your” (and so “istud tonarium” = “your tonary”). If there is no direct interlocutor (i.e. “tu”) you can just forget about istud. Once again, I invite you to ask for second opinions. --Grufo (disputatio) 23:00, 23 Maii 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: :::::::::No, not that one which is easy. You cannot find it, because it was not officially approved as part of "Gregorian chant", despite it was a composition of Carolingian cantors indeed! More Gregorian is hardly possible. It is due to this institutional limitation, why I would not recommend this database to musicologists, although it is quite well done. We have other databases which simply relate to the sources and this composition was widespread everywhere. There is no reason to suppress and to exclude it.

text: :::::::::The Ambrosian and Old Beneventan version was quite different. In the context of Mozarabic and Gallican chant it was a chant genre of its own used in combination with prophetic lessons called «Benedictiones». The texts of canticum 7 and 8 (thus, very present in each psalter) were also excluded as apokryphic parts of prophet Daniel, but I think the real reason was, that cantors today are not up to perform it, because it is very long and elaborated. But a group of singers under the Czech composer David Eben who is also very engaged in Gregorian chant, made a recording. It had no roots in the Roman tradition, but they replaced it anyway by Gregorian chant. My personal observation is that the difference between Carolingian and Roman redaction of melodies is based on the tonary. Roman cantors had been always the prototype of any reform, but nobody really cared about the difference (although it was mentioned by chroniclers such as John the Deacon—in English wikipedia "Johannes Hymonides"—, Notker Balbulus and later by Adémar de Chabannes), since they did not need notation nor did they need tonaries. They had  like in Constantinople, and by the way also the same titles for the singers, since Latin was the legal language in both Romes! We also have almost no tonaries in Italy with four prominent exeptions. The famous tonary of Montecassino, the one in a Roman library which was a copy of the Reichenau tonary, the Siculo-Norman one in Madrid which shares the background of Cluny as a centre of reform and William of Volpiano's school in Normandy who was educated as cantor in Cluny under abbot Mayeul. And later a Domenican one which belongs to a monastery at a Lombardian Borgo called Morimondo.
