A Gregorian mode (or church mode) is one of the eight systems of pitch organization used to describe Gregorian chant.
Famous quotes containing the word mode:
“Yours of the 24th, asking “the best mode of obtaining a thorough knowledge of the law” is received. The mode is very simple, though laborious, and tedious. It is only to get the books, and read, and study them carefully.... Work, work, work, is the main thing.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
