Tropes In Gloria from the mass „De Beata Virgine”in the Jagiellonian Missal from Jasna Góra. A monography on the research on postgregorian chant

Summary/Abstract: A study of liturgical music codexes proves that, apart from the fact that they contain typical Gregorian chants, a considerable significance is attached in them to later chants, based on Gregorian patterns as well as to the ones defined by medievalists as “post-gregorian” by. Plausible examples here are the so-called tropes which constitute additions of new texts and music to the pre-exist¬ing compositions. The issue raised in the present paper refers to one of such chants (Gloria from the mass de Beata Virgine) noted down in Missale Paulinorum in the beginning of the 16th century. Troping of this Gloria consists in inserting in the original text six additional short texts. The fact that the trope appeared in the Jagiellonian Missal proves that the so-called Marian Gloria was very popular. Although its use in the liturgy was banned, long after the Council of Trent it still had to be reminded that singing Marian Gloria on the feasts of the Mother of God was forbidden and that only the chants accepted by the Roman liturgy were allowed.
