Liturgical music in the first millennium was first of all cantillation, reciting liturgical texts with musical formulae and phrases to express structure and meanings of a text. With the means of spoken language a cantor had to give all informations of reading or prayer. Two elements are basic for a good recitation: Accent and articulation. All the types of cadences are acoustic punctuation marks. The oldest neumes had to serve for these rules of language. The monk Hartker was according to the tradition the scribe of a prominent antiphoner about the year 1000. In reality this manuscript had four main scribes and a lot of additional hands. All of them have followed the principle of expressing liturgical theology by means of music like accent and articulation. The examples presented show, how the scribes have understood the texts, which words in an antiphon served as key words, which theological aspects were important for them. This is a school of prayer according to the principle of logiké latreia, praying with intellect and spirit and emotion. Hartker is the aggiornamento of the bible in the 10th century.References
