synod, music, liturgy, Gregorian chantAbstract
The diocesan synods summoned by the Tarnów bishops among the many pastoral issues raised also spoke about the issues of singing and music in the liturgy. In the pre-Vatican II period synods showed liturgical music as an addition and decoration of the celebration, and after the Second Vatican Council, as its integral part. In synodal documents it was emphasized the glory of God and the sanctification of the faithful as important goals of liturgical music, its connection with the word, the significance of Gregorian chant and Palestrina polyphony, the sacral nature of works excluding everything secular. Great importance was attached to the existence and service of choirs and other vocal band, to the education of both priests and organists. Synods paid a lot of attention to organist issues (contract employment, pay and living conditions of church musicians).
