Based on highly original archival and palaeographical research,
this is the first methodological and factual primer in English on
the distinctive liturgical tradition of early medieval Spain. It
provides clear and approachable blueprints for future work on the
description and analysis (musical, theological and cultural) of
this and other liturgies. For non-specialists, the authors
introduce the main features of Old Hispanic liturgy, its
manuscripts, its services and its liturgical genres. For
specialists, they model a variety of ways to work with the Old
Hispanic materials in depth, incorporating notational, musical,
theological and historical perspectives. For those interested in
musical notation, the book lays out a method for working with
unpitched neumes, with illustrative results, that will inspire and
challenge others working on monophonic chant. For historians and
liturgists, the texts and melodies are analysed in combination with
the theological context that informed their creation.
