RESUMO

The aim of this research is to bring about important considerations about the use of gregorian chant themes in four important orchestral works by western music composers. These four works were selected within a rich universe of polyphonic compositions inspired in the early gregorian monophonic style. In each case, the type of accompaniment and harmonic flow to the gregorian melody were analyzed as well as the manner by which these non-isochronous melodies have been adjusted to the bar line. As conclusion, one can notice how Gregorian Chant despite its modest pratice during the period between the XII and XIX centuries and also since the last quarter of XX century on, has always inspired important composers throughout time and has left a rich legacy that has influenced composers to this day
