4 Public Domain Gregorian Chants for Download

Posted on : 22-03-2009 | By : admin | In : Free Royalty Free Music

g_chantHere are four public domain Gregorian Chant music clips for you to download and use in absolutely whatever way you want. Public domain means no one owns it, it means you can just use it with no restrictions. These are pretty good quality clips too.

Gregorian chant is the central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic liturgical chant in Western Christianity that accompanied the celebration of Mass and other ritual services. This vast repertory of chants is the oldest music known as it is the first repertory to have been adequately notated in the 10th century.

    Sorry to be a music history snob guys, but only track 2 is a Gregorian Chant. The other 3 are late-Medieval (and possibly early-Renaissance) polyphony. Gregorian chant is one melody sung (usually) in unison. Polyphony is multiple melodic voices singing in harmony. From what I heard the polyphony used liturgical texts, however, and was probably still used for services.
  • I love so much the gregorian chant and I have a site with a lot of things (MP3, scores and so one) about this beautiful music: www.gregoriano.org.br

    Love it! always loved gregorian chants. I was really glad to find this website and the visuals are really beautiful.

    Thanx,

    I would love to use a couple of these in my power point presentation for my humanities, but I don't know how to save them to my computer. When I right click on them, it just takes me to windows media player & does not create an MP3 in my computer. I'm very confused & any help would be appreciated!
  • pETER
    iN CASE THIS WAS NOT ANSWERED. rIGHT CLICK ON THE FILE (CLICK ON SAVE TARGET AS) AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP. YOU CAN THEN PLAY IT ON WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER
  • axgrindr
    Don't save the files to a program. Save them to your hard drive. There should be some kind of option on a PC to simply save a file to your hard disk instead of directly to a piece of software.
    I use a Mac so I can't give you specific instructions on how to save a file to your hard drive. Maybe a PC user reading this can answer her question for her?

    Gregorian Chant is truly great! an icon, a legend.. a real mc coy masterpiece. how i wish to sing with you all.
    i am mico a singer from viva records, also a songwriter, and i really love your versions.. it shivers to the bones. like a cure to stress. it refreshes the mind.

    i was ask by my brothers in christ to help raise 1 million pesos or more as funds for the rehabilatation and renovation of our parish church. and i was day dreaming of asking a wish to the lord if Gregorian Chant artists can help in making that wish come true... i ask God and say thank you Lord God, i beleive i receive the answers now!

    to all my friends who read this, please have a heart to pray with me to make that dream come. if there are people who would like to ask steven jacops, bill gates, oprah to help us out for the airfairs of the group if they come over here then may God bless you more..

    as an artist myself, i wish to perform with the Gregorian Chant if they shall be here for a concert in behalf of our church's needs and maybe somebody out there will support me in the production of the show, i believe our cardinals, bishops, monsignors, priest and nuns and all catholic schools and religious sector in this christian capital of the globe will fill up the chairs just to hear the rendition of the Gregorian Chant. ...and if you think you want to help also please write to me at my email ad bobbyalvero4@yahoo.com and donreyes1@yahoo.com or text me at mobile number 09074328667.

    or you may send your letters of support or love gifts at #33 medex subdivision, san francisco, calihan, san pablo city, laguna 4000, philippines
    if the funds and support overflows then we shall bestow love and care to the calamity victims of the always coming typhoons which takes life every now and then..
    in this connection then i shall make an internet program which gives dedications to all who supports me and i shall render my own versions of any requested songs you would want me to sing for you or to your loves ones and show ot here over the internet.. kindly send requests at my email address.. thank you more blessings to come and GOD always bless you more!

    Hi,
    thanks for the use of these chants. I appreciate it. Have used 2 of them for one of my study project and given link to your website as recognition as to where they came from. Also, thanks for previous posts in regards to copy rights since I don't know much about this. Monika

    I like this chant music cos it brings me to the worlt i need, God I love.
  • Fred Palmer
    it is interesting that you have the name of one of the great patriarts of the Bible. In Genesis we read that Abraham was asked by God to build an alter and make a blood sacrifice. i say all of this to say that music or anything else does not bring us closer to God. It is by the atoning blood only of the Lord Jesus Christ that reconciles a fallen world to God. Any other experiences are false and is only a feel good to the flesh. However,
    I have to say that these chants are lovely. I listen to them myself from time to time. Please remember Isaac that to obey the Word of God is better than sacrifice which is found in 1 Samuel I believe.
  • kwelio
    hi. how do i say this? i may be mistaken here but one of the 1st productions was called something like (gregorian chant). i only glimpsed at it for a few seconds. i cant find it anywhere. can you help? it could have been between the 1st and 3rd production.
    for some reason this particular cds music stays in my head.
  • axgrindr
    I really not sure what you are asking. The four gregorian chants are still right there in the post above. What is it you are looking for exactly?
  • Dan George
    Hi Mark,
    I am putting together a CD of meditative sounds that will ultimately be sold with the intent of generating revenue. It would be a privilege to include the Gregorian Chants in this collection. As copyright/public domain laws are vast and deep, and I do not want to violate any of these laws, can you offer written assurance that these chants are free and clear to use for such purpose. Thank you.

    Dear Friends

    Thank you for your fabulous site. I am developing meditation CDs. I need to be careful about copyright. The four Gregorain Chant tracks are very beautiful. Is there any way I can at least acknowledge the singers or their source?

    Many thanks.

    Sorry, we don't have the original WAV files but it is very easy to convert them to that format if that's what you need. Try iTunes for your conversions.

    Since the files are in public domain we cannot grant a license to use them as we do not own them.

    grand merci pour le travail que tu fais. ces chants sont d`une profondeur telle que depuis que je les ecoute, l`epanouissement de mon existence a vu ses dimentions s`elever au point ou je sents des presences aggreables.
    grand merci.
