Six programmes arranged and introduced by Egon Wellesz
3—Gregorian Melodies (1)
In this programme Dr. Wellesz traces the gradual building-up of the repertory of Gregorian melodies and the simultaneous attempts to abolish the Galhcan and Ambrosian chant. Eventually Gregorian dhant came to comprise the richest and most varied collection of sacred monody, several examples of which will be heard in this programme.
