Magnificat (Tone 2, D, g.)
-
Ave Maria!
I found a chant called Magnificat (Tone 2, D, g.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXub6v3e8-Y&feature=related
What does "Tone 2, D, g." mean? -
It has to do with psalm-tones in Gregorian chant and their cadences. See http://interletras.com/canticum/eng/psalmody_ENG.htm for more info.
