ROME

Rome: translation

TheSchola Cantorumof the Lateran, the oldest Christian musical institution in Rome, has been traditionally attributed to PopeSt. Gregory the Great(ruled 590–604) but possibly dates from the fourth century. Singers there received an excellent general education and musical training, and the Schola inspired a similar school at the Vatican and the ninth-century Carolingian effort to standardize liturgicalchantin the empire.
When the papacy transferred to Avignon (1309–1377) the Schola vanished, but it was restored by Pope Eugene IV in 1443 and increased to 24 singers by Pope Sixtus IV (ruled 1471–1784). Eventually, the Vatican had two choirs: a new training choir founded by Pope Julius II, theCappella Giulia, and the principal papal choir, now called theCapella Sistina.Other major basilicas in Rome established permanent choirs in the early 16th century, coincident with the golden age of Renaissance sacredpolyphonyassociated withGiovanni da Palestrina.
The city also heard a great deal of popular religious music, including thelaudeof religious confraternities,rappresentazioniof thepassionstory, and the earliestoratoriosearly in the 17th century at the churches of San Girolamo della Carità, Santa Maria in Vallicella, and the Oratorio del Crocifisso.
Thereafter, music of the theater and the secular world occupied the most talented composers, and the art of sacred music declined. The {}Pontificio Istituto di Musicawas established by Pope Pius X in 1911 as part of his campaign to restore the ancient qualities of Roman Catholic sacred music. Despite this good intention, compositions and performance practices growing out of theCecilian movement, such as accompanyingGregorian chantwith 19th-century functional harmonies, have kept the papal choir from the front ranks of the world’s sacred choirs.
