This volume documents the outcome of the seventh meeting of this
kind, held in December 2015, when a group of scholars of chant met with
the theme ‘Byzantine chant, radiation and interaction’. The purpose of
the meeting was to trace contacts, coherence and differentiation in chant
traditions that, in one way or another, relate to Byzantine chant as a
central vein amongst the Eastern chant traditions. The program also
included a very well received public concert with Ensemble Organum,
under the direction of Marcel Pérès. The concert was dedicated to the
memory of the Greek cantor and scholar Lycourgos Angelopoulos (1941-
2014), who has proved to be a great source of inspiration in his experi-
ments to capture the ‘sound’ of Byzantine chant and the testing of its
presumed historical performance practice
