Old Roman chant

Liturgical vocal music of the Roman rite of the Early Christian Church

Old Roman chant is the liturgical plainchant repertory of the Roman rite of the early Christian Church. It was formerly performed in Rome, and, although it is closely related to Gregorian chant, the two are distinct. Unlike other chant traditions, Old Roman chant and Gregorian chant share essentially the same liturgy and the same texts. Many of their melodies are also closely related. Although primarily associated with the churches of Rome, the Old Roman chant was also performed in parts of central Italy, and it was possibly performed much more widely. Gregorian Chant gradually but completely supplanted Old Roman Chant between the 11th century and the 13th century AD.
