A former Oxford chant singer (just before the formalisation of the current schola as a University society, in fact) has been spending time in Milan, and sends me this video which demonstrates Ambrosian chant notation. Fascinating stuff.
Perhaps the current Secretary would be able to demonstrate the chant of the Premonstratensians in a similar way? We should always bear in mind that we we do, with the Liber Usualis, is basically in the 'Roman' tradition, which is simply one of the traditions of Chant in the Latin Church, to say nothing of the Greeks, Armenians and other Rites!

About us
Founded in 2006 as a student society of Oxford University, we are an all-male chant schola singing Gregorian Chant; we sometimes sing with a mixed polyphonic consort specialising in Renaissance Polyphony. We sing this music in its intended setting in the Traditional Liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church, in association with the Latin Mass Society.
We are a founder member of the Gregorian Chant Network.
