read chant notation to be certain I'm reading it correctly.
Thanks very much,
Robert

Correct transcription of the various neumes, perhaps? Interpretation of
different embellishments? (Yes, they exist in Gregorian chant, as do
microtonal notation.)
Ficta or embellishments are my concern. Also how to read ligatures,
although the particular example is quite simple. Also how to interpret
dashes and dots over/by tones. My exposure is mostly limited to one
medieval music survey course 25 years ago, so I don't have the
