Abstract

The musical repertoire of processions of the Latin liturgy has had a singular treatment in the Western plainchant scenario. Scholars have focused their studies on liturgical music genres (antiphons, responsories, letanies, hymns,…) on issues related with their definitions and usages, based on a certain liturgical context; i.e., Mass or Divine Office. For this reason, this paper aims to summarize the relevant descriptive and functional aspects of these forms of liturgical music in its processional praxis, in the context of a research of a corpus, which could be inferred to the medieval processional books.
