How closely related are chant and the liturgical structure of the Mass? So close that they cannot be separated.

Chant is not just accompaniment. It is not just a style of music subject to individual preference. The chant is integral to the very structure of how the Mass is prayed.

We commend to you the explanation of these points by William Mahrt, in the new issue of Sacred Music, which is online. Details at this post on MusicaSacra.com.
