Zahava’sdad, I once saw an article by a musicologist who was learning in Ohr Sameach that claimed that the Gregorian chants were taken form the tunes of the Levi’im so maybe that was too.
Considering the fact that there aren’t any surviving records of how the Levi’im sang and that the Gregorian chants didn’t form until centuries later*, I’d love to know how this is possible.

* Yes, singing has been a part of the Church since its earlist days, but the songs they sung were not the Gregorian chants that are extant today.
