The classic exploration of Syriac liturgical melodies, the work of
Dom Jeannin has no rivals. Beginning with a discussion of the
nature of Beth Gazo, the treasury of chants, this work provides a
careful introduction to the various types of liturgical music found
in the church. Homilies in strophic form, the popular poetry of the
fifth-century qole, antiphonal psalms, anthems, melismatic hymns or
litanies, and melodies from Mosul are just part of the service
music and hymnody discussed in the introduction and presented with
their melodies in Syriac.
