What's lit's oppinon on gregorian chant? Is it apocryptha?

Ok, one real question, something I'm rally interested in.

>caelius

Every single rendition that I listen to, pronouces it ether c-aelius, ch-elius, or something else, isn't is k-aelius? Like in caesar-kaesar? C is always K in latin? Or am I missing something?

Latin pronunciation is split into classical Latin and ecclesiastical Latin. C is always hard only in classical Latin.

>ecclesiastical Latin
Yeah, but Gregorian is OLD as fuk. The question is was it written and intended for C or K?

>Gregorian is OLD as fuk.

Yes, so is church Latin.

>>8893009
I thought gregorian was started in the second half of the first millennium ce, while ecclesiastical latin began around 3rd century

>Is approved by the Pope?
If I'm not mistaken it's still the official liturgical music of the Catholic Church, even after the V2 reforms in the late 60s. Of course people have chosen to cite the "spirit of Vatican II" to justify all sorts of misinterpretations, so you won't hear it unless you go to a Tridentine Latin Mass, which I highly recommend.

It's old but those sound changes were already well established in Latin by then. It's tshay-lee-us
