To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not the only such collection. Connected with the great Church of Milan there is a similar collection of ' Ambrosian Jlusic, ' and in other parts of Western Christendom similar collections formerly existed. Little has survived of African, Celtic, or Galilean church music, apart from what has been incor- piorated into the Gregorian collection ; but dis- coveries are bringing back to light large parts of the ancient Spanish or ' Visigothic'or'ilozarabic* music and rites, which were all but e...ntirely ousted by the Roman rites and their music before the end of the 11th century, and are showing that the Visigothic formed Avith the Ambrosian and the Gregorian a third musical dialect of the Western Church. Each of these collections is of Importance for the history of tlie art of music. A word must first be said as to their mutual relations, and then attention must be devoted to the Gregorian collection, which is by far the most important. The relation subsisting between the three has already been indicated by calling them three dialects ; in other words, they are fundamentally alike, but superficially dilTerent.
