Although the Pope was not one of the promoters of liturgical revival, he did not ignore musical art. This is proven by three documents issued during his pontificate that to a various degree undertake the issue of liturgical music: two encyclicals – Mediator Dei and Musicae sacrae disciplina and the Instruction of the Sacred Congregation of Rites De Musica sacra et sacra Liturgia drew up on the basis of the mentioned encyclicals. All these documents became an important point of reference in the history of church music. The most important issues undertaken there include: the aims and tasks of sacred music, features of liturgical music, the Gregorian chorale, polyphonic singing, folk songs, singing ensembles, musical instruments, concerts of religious music, concern over the clergy’s musical education.
