FERREIRA, Manuel Pedro. Recordando o rei David: vivência coral e criatividade musical na Europa pós-carolíngia. []. , 8, pp.74-105.   31--2010. ISSN 1646-740X.  https://doi.org/10.4000/medievalista.472.

This paper explores the presence of King David in the daily life and imaginary world of Latin medieval clergy, focusing on the Psaltery and those musical items (antiphons, sequences, tropes) newly inspired in David's biography as recorded in the Old Testament. Although referring both to pre-Carolingian mentality and to 16th-century humanism as mirrored in contemporary polyphony, it takes as its main object the liturgical repertory in existence around the 11th century. In so doing, it puts into evidence the tension between an expansive, emotional musical aesthetics (mainly associated to Cluny and the Aquitanian and Aquitanian-derived traditions) and the patristic puritanism revived by the Cistercians in the 12th century. Among those texts translated here into Portuguese for the first time, passages from 12th-century authors John of Salisbury, Hugh of Fouilloy and Aelred of Rievaulx are particularly telling.
