About this lecture
Co-curator Katarina Livljanić welcomes Harvard professor Thomas Forrest Kelly for a salon dedicated to one of her great loves: Gregorian chant. Often maligned today as gothic horror, but at the same time a regular fixture in liturgical, monastic or concert settings: this unison repertoire is like a ghost with churning blood in its veins. Where did this music come from, how did it make it into the present, and why all the revivals and revisions?
