Graduale Simplex
Graduale simplex ("Simple Gradual") is a gradual in Latin and in Gregorian, published by the Vatican in 1967 following the Second Vatican Council, so that the use of Gregorian chant can adapt to smaller parishes and churches or to those who lack experienced choirs. Its full title is ''Graduale simplex in usum minorum ecclesiarum'' (simple gradual for the use of small churches). Constitution on liturgy The publication of the first edition of the ''Graduale simplex'' was achieved in 1967, as a reworking of the Gregorian chant book in order to satisfy the ''Sacrosanctum Concilium'' Constitution of 4 December 1963, following the Second Vatican Council.

The second, revised and definitive edition, was published in 1975 and has been re-printed since then.

Gregorian Chant
Gregorian chant is the central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic, unaccompanied sacred song in Latin (and occasionally Greek) of the Roman Catholic Church. Gregorian chant developed mainly in western and central Europe during the 9th and 10th centuries, with later additions and redactions. Although popular legend credits Pope Gregory I with inventing Gregorian chant, scholars believe that it arose from a later Carolingian synthesis of the Old Roman chant and Gallican chant. Gregorian chants were organized initially into four, then eight, and finally 12 modes. Typical melodic features include a characteristic ambitus, and also characteristic intervallic patterns relative to a referential mode final, incipits and cadences, the use of reciting tones at a particular distance from the final, around which the other notes of the melody revolve, and a vocabulary of musical motifs woven together through a process called centonization to create families of related ch ...
