Chant...!!!*

What is a Chant ??



Chant  is the rhythmic speaking or singing of words or sounds, often primarily on one or two pitches called reciting tones. Chants may range from a simple melody involving a limited set of notes to highly complex musical structures, often including a great deal of repetition of musical subphrases, such as Great Responsories and Offertories of Gregorian chant. Chant may be considered speech, music, or a heightened or stylized form of speech. In the later Middle Ages some religious chant evolved into song (forming one of the roots of later Western music).

REFLECTION: 

The use of chants is so helpful for people who needs to remember some important thing. It could be really great in a English class too, because our students cand learn with chants better that learn in a traditional way. Chants are common whe you teach children, but we have to keep in mind that young learners could use it.
