Oral tradition is also needed, for it alone can teach the nght musical accentuation. ite The Gregorian Congress, therefore, at the instance of Baron Kanzler, decided to avail itself of one of the latest applications of modern science, and to have records taken of the Gregorian Mass for use on the Victor. These records were sent to many Catholic seminaries, colleges, convents and churches of the world, and the Victor is doing, on a large scale, that which the two teachers, Romanus and Peter, did on a small scale in the eighth century. NOTE—lIt cannot be denied that these Gregorian chant records are somewhat monotonous, except to those specially interested. The average record customer will prefer the concerted numbers listed under Sistine Choir,”” which are remarkably interesting reproductions of a famous body of singers in-some noble religious compositions. RECORDS OF THE GREGORIAN HIGH MASS ' Recorded in St. Peter’s Church on the Centenary of St..Gregorius Magnus. These records were executed under the direction of Mons. Rella, Leader of the Gregorian Chant in the Sistine Chapel.
