Biblical passages were official late-Middle-Ages Catholic Church music {Gregorian chant}|. Gregorian chants use one note per syllable {syllabic style} and one of eight key modes. Modes have different intervals between tones and so have different moods. Modes have a central tone {reciting tone} for melody, a tone {ambitus} one octave above central tone, and a tone {final tone} on which music ends.
