"Viderunt Omnes" is a traditional Gregorian chant of the 11th century. The work is based on an ancient gradual of the same title, which was previously expanded upon by composers of the Notre Dame school. This organum, thought to be written for Christmas festivities, would have retained the same purpose as the original gradual-- the cantus firmus, or tenor, "holds" the original chant, while the other parts develop complex melismas on the vowels. Its musicological significance stems from its variations which provide context into specific musically historical trends.
