Dentro de um rico universo de composições polifônicas inspiradas no antigo estilo monofônico gregoriano, quatro obras significativas foram selecionadas para um estudo detalhado. O tipo de acompanhamento e encaminhamento harmônico a cada melodia gregoriana e a maneira como estas melodias não isócronas foram enquadradas na barra de compasso foram comentados em cada caso. Concluiu-se que o canto gregoriano, apesar de pouco praticado durante o período compreendido entre os séculos XII e XIX e também pouco praticado desde o último quarto do século XX, mas com uma rica tradição, sempre inspirou importantes compositores ao longo do tempo, deixando um legado que influenciou compositores até a época atual / Abstract: The aim of this research is to bring about important considerations about the use of gregorian chant themes in four important orchestral works by western music composers. These four works were selected within a rich universe of polyphonic compositions inspired in the early gregorian monophonic style. In each case, the type of accompaniment and harmonic flow to the gregorian melody were analyzed as well as the manner by which these non-isochronous melodies have been adjusted to the bar line. As conclusion, one can notice how Gregorian Chant despite its modest pratice during the period between the XII and XIX centuries and also since the last quarter of XX century on, has always inspired important composers throughout time and has left a rich legacy that has influenced composers to this day / Mestrado / Mestre em Música

Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2012. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The o set Gregorian dual re ector antenna is eminently well suited to a radio telescope antenna application as it o ers a narrow beam width pattern (i.e high gain) and good e ciency. The focus of this work is on the analysis of characteristics of such a Gregorian antenna. The design of the class of re ector antennas is normally based on the use of ray-optics, with this simpli ed approach being able to predict antenna performance based on approximate formulas for example the beam width against aperture size. However for compound antennas such as the Gregorian re ector there are several interdependent parameters that can be varied and this reduces the applicability of the simple ray-optic approach. It was decided that, if a fast enough analysis of a con guration can be found, the technique of design through interactive analysis would be viable. To implement a fast analysis of the main beam performance of such a Gregorian antenna, a solution algorithm has been implemented using a plane wave spectrum approach combined with a custom aperture integration formulation. As this is able to predict the beam performance within about a second on a PC, it is suitable for iterative design. To implement the iterative design in a practical manner a user interface has been generated that allows the user to interactively modify the geometry, see the physical layout, and then nd the antenna pattern. A complete working system has been realised with results comparing well to a reference solution. The limitations of the technique, such as its inaccuracy in predicting the side lobe structure, are also discussed. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die afset Gregoriaanse dubbelweerkaatser antenna is uiters gepas vir radioteleskoop toepassings aangesien dit 'n nou bundelwydte (ho e aanwins) en 'n goeie benuttingsgraad bied. Die fokus van hierdie werk is op die analise van die eienskappe van so 'n Gregoriaanse antenna. Die ontwerp van die klas van weerkaatsantennas is normaalweg gebaseer op straal-optika, waar hierdie vereenvoudigde tegniek, deur benaderde formules, gebruik kan word om antennawerkverrigting af te skat soos bv. die bundelwydte teen stralingsvlakgrootte. Vir saamgestelde antennas soos die Gregoriaanse weerkaatser is daar egter verskeie onafhanklike parameters wat verstel kan word en die toepaslikheid van die eenvoudige straal-optiese benadering verminder. Dit was besluit dat, indien die analise van die kon gurasie vinnig genoeg uitgevoer kon word, die tegniek van ontwerp deur interaktiewe analise werkbaar kan wees. Om 'n vinnige analise van die hoofbundelwerkverrigting van so 'n Gregoriaanse antenna te bewerkstellig, is 'n oplossingsalgoritme gemplementeer wat gebruik maak van 'n platvlakgolfspektrum benadering in kombinasie met 'n doelgemaakte stralingsvlakintegrasieformulering. Aangesien hierdie strategie die hoofbundel binne ongeveer 'n sekonde op 'n persoonlike rekenaar kan voorspel, is dit gepas vir iteratiewe ontwerp. Om die iteratiewe ontwerp op 'n praktiese wyse te implementeer is 'n gebruikerskoppelvlak geskep wat die gebruiker toelaat om, op 'n interaktiewe wyse, die geometrie aan te pas, die siese uitleg te sien en dan die stralingspatroon te bereken. 'n Volledige werkende stelsel is gerealiseer met resultate wat goed ooreenstem met 'n verwysingsoplossing. Die tekortkominge van die tegniek, soos die onakkuraatheid in die voorspelling van die sylobstruktuur, word ook bespreek.

Though perhaps we shall never know the music to which these religious lyrics were written, the poems have never ceased to be the source of inspiration for the spirits of men since they were first sung. Each psalm seems to have an underlying purpose with a personal message for each reader. In the Book one can find a reply to every sort of question, for the Psalms are filled with expressions of emotion brought about by all human experience. The collection of these 150 songs or psalms makes up what is known as the Hebrew hymn-book or the Book of Psalms.

During the eleventh century the Aquitanian monastery of St. Yrieix, located forty kilometers south of Limoges, acquired a new gradual, a manuscript containing the liturgical Mass chants for the year. The Gradual of St. Yrieix, now at the Paris Bibliothèque Nationale (Pa903), includes both text and music, redacted with the musical notation typical of the region of Aquitaine. The objective of this research is to analyze Pa903 as a document of liturgical musical practice and as a participant in the historical events of its region and time. While the Gregorian chant repertory dominates the gradual, this dissertation addresses the neo-Gregorian chants of Pa903, composed in the period following the dissemination of Gregorian chant throughout Europe. These neo-Gregorian chants were open to the influence of the contemporary regional musical style and cultural traditions surrounding St. Yrieix. Chapter II reviews the backdrop of historical events surrounding Pa903, focusing on the reform and expansion at St. Yrieix and its transition from a monastery to a chapter of canons. The musical and liturgical characteristics of Pa903 (Chapter III) show that St. vii Yrieix favored its senior patron St. Martin of Tours and St. Aredius (its patron saint) above St. Martial of Limoges (a powerful neighbor) and presented in the gradual a community of saints with strong regional influence. Chapters IV and V analyze the concordances of antiphons, tropes, prosulas, prosas, and neo-Gregorian Mass chants of Pa903 with those of the Aquitanian graduals and other sources throughout Europe. The tropes of the Proper and Ordinary, the complete repertory of prosulas and prosas, and the neo-Gregorian Mass chants of Pa903 are collected together here for the first time outside of Pa903. The neo-Gregorian chants are found in the sanctoral, temporal, and the ritual Masses and include a group of chants that reflects textual and musical elements of the prior Gallican tradition. The chant repertory of the gradual also presents a subgroup of forty-nine antiphons, prosas, prosulas, and neo-Gregorian Mass chants found only in Pa903, documented here with musical examples. / text
