Gregorian Accompaniment: A Theoretical and Practical Treatise Upon the Accompaniment of Plainsong is a book written by Louis Niedermeyer and first published in 1905. The book is a comprehensive guide to the accompaniment of Gregorian chant, a form of plainchant that is used in the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church. The book is divided into two parts: the theoretical and the practical. In the theoretical section, Niedermeyer provides a thorough explanation of the principles of Gregorian chant and its accompanying harmony. He covers topics such as the modes of Gregorian chant, the principles of counterpoint, and the use of harmony in accompaniment. In the practical section, Niedermeyer provides numerous examples of Gregorian chant and its accompaniment. He includes exercises for the student to practice, as well as full musical compositions with accompanying harmonies. Overall, Gregorian Accompaniment is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of Gregorian chant and its accompaniment. It provides a detailed and thorough explanation of the principles of this ancient form of music and offers practical guidance for those seeking to master it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
