The interval of a .mrti, very rarely used in plainsong, is composed of six degrees of the scale. It can either be major or minor. It is major if it contains four tones and a semitone: t. t. s.-t. t. t. t. t. s.-t. t. t. minor if it comprises three tones and two semitones : \ t. s.-t. t. t. s.-t.
Lesson XII. 19 The interval cf a seventh is never used in real Gregorian music. It embraces seven degrees of the scale, thus: g-JL_o__ The octave covers eight degrees :(*) 6 T-T—• Lesson XIL Importance of good Rtading. Rules for the Roman Pronunciation of Latin : Vowels, Consonants, Syllables. Before going on to Part II it is well to know the practical rules on which good reading depends, and especially good reading of Latin, the only language used in the liturgy. Indeed, in order to sing well and give the right expression to the chant, the first essential is to read well. The rules to be observed in good reading can be summed up under three principal heads: 1. Correct pronunciation of the words. 2. Accentuation. 3. Phrasing. Rules for the Roman Pronunciation of Latin. The letters are divided into vowels and consonants. Voweis* The vowels are the life and soul of the words, and each must be enunciated as one single pure sound. Each must be given its proper timbre, and to preserve it from the smallest shade of alteration one must studiously avoid the very slightest change in the position of lips and tongue during its articulation. In English a mixture or sequence of two sounds can nearly always be detected. ( l ) The interval of an octave does not really exist in Gregorian chant. It is indeed sometimes met with, but only in compositions of the latest period, and between two musical phrases. The Sanctus of Masses IX and XIV in the Gradual may be cited as examples.
