- **tonus** is a medieval music and cosmology library. It covers:
4
-
5
- - pitch, tuning, hexachords, and the eight church modes
6
- - the liturgical calendar, the feast of the day, and mass selection
7
- - the chant repertoire in GABC: propers, ordinary, office, and psalm tones

9

15
- ## Install
3
+ **tonus** is a JavaScript library for medieval music theory and chant
4
+ analysis. It carries the Gregorian repertoire and the theory it was built on:
5
+ it resolves what any day calls for, tunes chant in the ratios it was sung in,
6
+ parses and draws the notation, voices the planets as pitch, and measures each
7
+ chant in comparison.
8
+
9
+ Everything is computed locally and deterministically: the same question always
10
+ returns the same answer, from data that ships inside the package, with no network
11
+ calls and no runtime dependencies.
12
+
13
+ ## What it covers
14
+
15
+ - **Pitch and tuning.** The medieval pitch world: Pythagorean and meantone
16
+ temperaments, just intonation and custom scales, the Guidonian gamut and hand,
17
+ hexachords and their mutations, and interval analysis by name.
18
+ - **The eight modes.** Each church mode with its final, dominant, ambitus, and
19
+ ethos, and the psalm tones that go with them.
20
+ - **The liturgical calendar.** The Tridentine calendar of any year, resolved
21
+ against Easter (by the Julian or the Gregorian computus), with each feast's
22
+ rank, grade, and season.
23
+ - **The chant repertoire.** About 2,200 chants across ten books (nine Solesmes
24
+ editions and the Nocturnale Romanum night office), in
25
+ [GABC](https://gregorio-project.github.io/) notation: Mass propers, the Kyriale,
26
+ the Office hours, the psalter, and the Matins nocturns, retrievable by feast,
27
+ season, mode, or office.
28
+ - **Rhythm and notation.** GABC parsed into phrases, syllables, and tuned notes,
29
+ shaped by the Solesmes arsis/thesis rhythm, with an analytic fingerprint of a
30
+ chant's melodic character, and drawn to a square-note or modern staff.
31
+ - **The harmony of the spheres.** An ephemeris of the classical planets, voiced
32
+ as tuned pitch after Boethius, Nicomachus, Pliny, and Ptolemy.
33
+ - **The census.** Every shipped chant measured against the corpus that holds
34
+ it: how typical it is, where it is unusual, and its nearest neighbours by
35
+ melodic shape.
36
+
37
+ ## The ideas behind it
38
+
39
+ Boethius's _De institutione musica_ carried Greek theory into the Latin
40
+ Middle Ages, and it treats music as a branch of number, beside arithmetic,
41
+ geometry, and astronomy. Its music runs from the audible to the inaudible:
42
+ voices and instruments (_musica instrumentalis_), body and soul (_musica
43
+ humana_), the turning cosmos (_musica mundana_). Chant was composed and
44
+ copied inside that frame: pitch was ratio, the modes a received order, the
45
+ heavens harmonic proportion.
46
+
47
+ tonus takes those claims literally enough to compute them. It tunes pitch in
48
+ the Pythagorean ratios of the treatises. It reads the calendar as the
49
+ retrieval index it was for a millennium. It follows the Solesmes rhythm of
50
+ arsis and thesis. And it computes _musica mundana_ as sounding pitch. Where
51
+ the sources run out or contradict one another, tonus makes an editorial call
52
+ and records it in the code.
53
+
54
+ tonus is an instrument for study. It treats this repertoire as musical and
55
+ historical material to be measured, queried, and understood; what it models is
56
+ the sound and its structure.
57
+
58
+ ## Sources
59
+
60
+ tonus is built on primary and scholarly sources, and it names them wherever it
61
+ makes a choice. The chant and calendar data are the Solesmes editions, by way of
62
+ [GregoBase](https://gregobase.selapa.net/),
63
+ [Divinum Officium](https://divinumofficium.com/), and the community _Nocturnale
64
+ Romanum_. The rhythm follows Mocquereau, Gajard, Suñol, and Daniel Saulnier; the
65
+ modes and cadences follow Rockstro's _Grove_ article, Niedermeyer & d'Ortigue,
66
+ and Apel; the tuning follows Boethius's _De institutione musica_ and Ptolemy's
67
+ _Harmonics_; the notation is engraved in Daniel Spreadbury's
68
+ [Bravura](https://github.com/steinbergmedia/bravura), the reference font for the
69
+ SMuFL standard; the planetary doctrines follow Godwin's sourcebooks of the
70
+ Pythagorean tradition.

- ESM only. Node ≥ 20; works in the browser through a bundler. No runtime
22
- dependencies. Roughly 5,500 chants and the full 642-entry calendar ship in
23
- the package — 6.5 MB unpacked, 1.5 MB packed.
24
-
25
- ## Documentation
26
-
27
- One page per engine, in dependency order. Each page states its rules, then its theory and historical context, then its sources.
28
-
29
- - **[Index](docs/index.md)** — Table of contents and conventions.
30
- - **[Tuning](docs/tuning.md)** — `temperamentum`. The medieval pitch system:
31
- temperaments, Guidonian gamut and hand,
32
- hexachordal solmization and mutations, eight modes, and psalm
33
- tones. Depends on nothing else in the library.
34
- - **[Calendar](docs/calendar.md)** — `festum`, `pascha`. The Tridentine
35
- liturgical calendar resolved against dual-computus Easter: feasts with
36
- their authentic ranks, grades, and seasons, and the movable anchors of
37
- any year.
38
- - **[Chant](docs/chant.md)** — `cantus`, `proprium`, `ordinarium`,
39
- `officium`, `psalmus`. The Solesmes books in GABC: Mass propers, the
40
- Kyriale, the Office hours, the psalter.
41
- - **[Score](docs/score.md)** — `notatio`. GABC into tuned notes: phrases,
42
- syllables, Solesmes arsis/thesis rhythm, prosody, the analytic imprint.
43
- - **[Heavens](docs/heavens.md)** — `caelum`, `harmonia`. An ephemeris
44
- computed from JPL orbital elements, voiced through the planetary
45
- doctrines of Boethius, Nicomachus, Pliny, and Ptolemy.
46
-
47
- These pages are the middle of a three-level ladder: the API docs here link down
48
- into the code, where the full theory, provenance, and editorial reasoning live in
49
- comments beside what they explain. Read as deep as you care to. Sources for
50
- concepts, scholarship, and data are listed in
51
- [BIBLIOGRAPHY.md](BIBLIOGRAPHY.md); where sources disagree or run out, **tonus**
52
- makes an editorial call, recorded in the code and glossed in the page's Theory &
53
- Context section.
54
-
55
- ## The tuning engine
56
-
57
- The tuning engine is self-contained; every other engine resolves its pitches
58
- through it.
59
-
60
81
  ```js
61
82
  import tonus from "tonus";
62
83
 
63
- const t = tonus.temperamentum({ mode: 1 }); // Pythagorean, mode 1
64
-
65
- t.nota("D4");
66
- // 293.33 Hz the final of mode 1, tuned through pure fifths
84
+ // Build a tuning: Pythagorean, set to mode 1.
85
+ const t = tonus.temperamentum({ mode: 1 });
86
+ t.nota("D4"); // 293.33 Hz, the final of mode 1, through pure fifths
87
+ t.gradus("D4"); // "Delasolre": RE of the natural hexachord, the finalis
67
88
 
68
- t.gradus("D4");
69
- // Delasolre: RE of the natural hexachord, role "finalis",
70
- // middle finger, base joint, on the Guidonian hand
71
-
72
- t.intervallum("D4", "A4");
73
- // Quinta (alias Diapente), perfect — final to tenor
74
-
75
- t.tonus();
76
- // psalm tone 1, differentia 1g:
77
- // intonatio F3–A3–C4, mediatio C4–A3–G3–A3, terminatio C4–A3–G3–A3–G3
78
- ```
79
-
80
- ## The liturgical stack
81
-
82
- The remaining engines compose:
83
-
84
- ```js
89
+ // Ask the calendar for a day, then pull the chant that belongs to it.
85
90
  const [feast] = tonus.festum({ date: new Date("2026-12-25") });
86
- // nomen: "In Nativitate Domini", ritus: "Duplex I classis",
87
- // grade: "duplex-i", tempus: "Tempus Nativitatis"
88
-
91
+ // "In Nativitate Domini", a Duplex I classis feast of Christmastide
89
92
  const [introit] = tonus.proprium({ feast, office: "in" });
90
- // "Puer natus est", mode 7, GABC from the Liber Usualis
93
+ // "Puer natus est", mode 7, from the Liber Usualis
91
94
 
95
+ // Turn the chant into tuned, rhythmicized notes.
92
96
  const score = tonus.notatio(introit, { temperamentum: t });
93
- // phrases, syllables, tuned pitches, arsis/thesis rhythm, prosody, imprint
94
97
 
98
+ // And voice the Christmas sky as pitch, after Boethius.
95
99
  const harmony = tonus.harmonia(tonus.caelum({ date: feast.date }));
96
- // each visible planet voiced as pitch and Greek vowel, after Boethius
97

- ## Development
102
+ The objects each call returns (`feast`, `t`) pass straight back into the next as
103
+ filters.
104
+
105
+ ## Documentation
106
+
107
+ The **[documentation index](docs/api/index.md)** is the technical center: the full
108
+ API, the conventions, the error contract, and the code standards. From there,
109
+ one page per engine, in dependency order:
110
+ [tuning](docs/api/tuning.md), [calendar](docs/api/calendar.md), [chant](docs/api/chant.md),
111
+ [score](docs/api/score.md), [heavens](docs/api/heavens.md), and
112
+ [census](docs/api/census.md).
