Caban, Peter (Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, 2006)
This article is concerned with the theological beginnings of music in the liturgy and is trying to approach basics of formation of the early Christian liturgies and music in the first centuries of Church’s existence. The Old Testament and New Testament’s testimonies to liturgy are used as a basis for this article. The fact, that the vocal expressions in the music of Christians of early centuries had priority, is witnessed by many testimonies as well as by this study. This is reflected especially in singing psalms and hymns and in other influences on the early Christian liturgy.
