Learn to Chant the Our Father in Latin (Pater Noster) | Gregorian Chant Tutorial

Learn to chant the Our Father in Latin, step by step. The Pater Noster is one of the most famous prayers in all of Christianity, and this Gregorian chant setting is the universal melody the whole Catholic Church shares. In this lesson I teach you the Latin pronunciation word by word, then the melody phrase by phrase, until you can sing the entire chant on your own. No music reading experience needed. This is the same Catholic prayer you already know from Mass and the Rosary. By the end of this video you will be able to chant it in Latin with a confident, supported voice, at home or at church. 🎼 FREE SHEET MUSIC: Download my modern-notation edition of the Pater Noster chant here: [https://mailchi.mp/creativechurchcomm... ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Welcome: what you will learn today 0:46 Meet Dr. Carly York 1:29 The Our Father in Scripture (Matthew 6 and Luke 11) 2:49 Where the doxology came from (the Didache) 3:47 How the Our Father entered the Mass (Pope Gregory the Great) 6:28 The story of the chant melody (Solesmes and the Vatican Edition) 9:45 SINGING LESSON BEGINS: speak the Latin text with me 14:05 The full Latin prayer, spoken together 14:58 Learn the melody, phrase by phrase 19:40 Sing the first half together, slowly 20:32 The two hardest phrases, made easy 23:05 Sing the full Pater Noster with me 24:27 Your turn: solo with piano accompaniment 25:36 Get your free sheet music ABOUT ME I am Dr. Carly York, The Catholic Cantor.
