Le rythme du chant dit Grégorien d'après la notation neumatique - Houdard, Georges 1860-1913 (Paris Librairie Fischbacher, 1898)
Georges Louis Houdard (1860-1913) was a French musicologist, paleographer and historian. He was one of a group of scholars studying Gregorian chant known as "mensuralists", who assumed that Gregorian writing was rhythmically precise but whose sound renditions lacked the characteristics of a melody.
