Medieval music - Early chant traditions.
Chant (or plainsong) is a monophonic sacred form which represents the earliest known music of the Christian church. The Jewish Synagogue tradition of singing psalms was a strong influence on Christian chanting.
Chant developed separately in several European centers. The most important were Rome, Spain, Gaul, Milan, and Ireland. These chants were all developed to support the regional liturgies used when celebrating the Mass there. Each area developed its own chants a ...

An Ultra group can be composed from few dozens to hundreds, mixing several parts of the community, claim entire sectors of the stadium for themselves and get involved in the team rather more often than regular fans.
Four points are the core of a ultra mentality:
Never stop singing during the whole match, no matter the result;

Football culture - Football chants.
Main article: Football chants
Football chants are chants generated by the crowd at matches to encourage the supporters' team, insult the opposition, or just make a noise. Teams tend to have their own 'anthems' which the crowds can sing; some songs are even shared between clubs. While some chants are used to mock opposition players (e.g. "Who ate all the pies?"), others are more aggressive and of a personal nature against a player on the field. Some chanting ...

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Guillaume Dufay - Music and influence Dufay was by far the most influential composer of the 15th century, and his music was copied, distributed and sung everywhere that polyphony had taken root. Almost all composers of the succeeding generations absorbed some elements of his style. The wide distribution of his music is all the more impressive considering that he died several decades before the availability of music printing.
Dufay wrote in most of the common forms of the day, including masses, motets, Magnificats, hymns, simple chant settings in fauxbourdon, and antiphons ...

The most recent common form of Christian music is Contemporary Christian music, or CCM.

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Music of Brittany - Traditional Breton music Traditional Breton folk music includes a variety of vocal and instrumental styles. Purely traditional musicians became the heroes of the roots revival in the XXth century, most importantly the Goadec sisters. At the end of the XIXth century, the vicomte Theodore Hersart de la Villemarqué's collection of largely nationalistic Breton songs, Barzaz Breiz, was also influential, and was partially responsible for continuing Breton traditions. ...

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Medieval music - Overview
Medieval music - Style and trends.
The general trend in Medieval music is toward complexity in harmony, rhythm, text, and orchestration. At the start of the era, music is monophonic and homorhythmic with a unison sung text and no notated instrumental support. The notation system is weak, and rhythm cannot be specified. The simplicity of chant, with unison voice and natural declamation, is most common. Polyphony and notation develop. Harmony, in consonant intervals of fourths, fifths, and octaves, begins to be see ...

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Christian music - Early Church history Aside from hymns taken from the Bible itself, the earliest hymn still in use today is probably O Gladsome Light (Greek Φως 'Ιλαρον, Phôs Hilaron). In the fourth century, Basil the Great referred to it as already being a rather old hymn.
Some of the popularity of Arianism in the fourth century can be attributed to the catchy songs that the priest Arius composed in its support. The popularity of the songs helped increase the popularity of his teachings. Ephrem the Syrian composed a number of hymns later in the fourth century that supported what even ...

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Christian music - Hymns Main article: Hymn
The tradition of Christian hymns in the English language is closely tied to Protestantism. Protestant hymns can range from the Reformation organ pieces of J. S. Bach to the American folk hymns found in The Sacred Harp. Martin Luther composed a number of hymns in the 16th century, reportedly borrowing some of their melodies from popular tavern drinking songs of that period. Another famous hymn composer is Charles Wesley, brother of John Wesley. Some hymns, particularly Christmas carols, are widely embraced by ...

| | | | | Chanting: Encyclopedia II - Christian music - Brazilian Christian music While Brazilian Protestantism came to be dominated by pasteurised CCM-influenced pop music, there was a period from the 1970s to the early 1990s when there was a creative movement adapting various Brazilian styles, mainly MPB, to religious meanings and even congregational singing.
While very little is left of this movement, known simply as 'Música Evangélica' to contrast with the pop, commercialised, CCM-like 'Música Gospel', there are still some groups and persons continuing the creative tradition, such as Guilherme Kerr. Furtherm ...
