1. The liturgical music 2. Stock of traditional liturgical music 3. Stock of Latin traditional liturgical music 4. Stock of traditional religious music
Liturgical music includes all the pieces, sung or played, used during the services and the processions, which accompany and give a particular splendour to the liturgy, such as canticles. The religious songs are inspired by a religious theme, but don’t participate directly to the services. Christmas carols are part of this second category.
