Melisma
Wordless Song in Medieval Chant
This is the first book about melismas, or long melodies sung to a single vowel. Using the evidence of medieval creative minds, Thomas Forrest Kelly uncovers the melisma as a phenomenon, how it works, how melismas appear when they are written in chant, and how they function as part of a text and as part of a song.
