The Schola cantorum was the trained papalchoir during the Middle Ages, specializing in the performance of plainchant. Although legend associates them with the papacy of Gregory the Great, there is no historical evidence to support this claim. The Schola is attested in historical records beginning in the 8th century, possibly beginning under Pope Sergius I. They played a significant and contentious role in the transmission of Roman chant to the Carolingian court of Charlemagne, where the fusion of Roman and Gallican chant evolved into what we now know as Gregorian chant.
Between the years 876 and 1073, the prior of the Schola is recorded to have performed a curious dance with clearly pagan origins known as Cornomania, on the Saturday following Easter, on the Lateran Square in Rome. He would wear a wreath with horns on his head, swing a rattle with bells, scatter laurel leaves, and cry out in an unknown language, "Iaritan, iaritan, iariariasti; raphayn, iercoin, iariariasti".
La Schola was founded in 1894 and opened on 15 October 1896 as a rival to the Paris Conservatoire. Alexandre Guilmant, an organist at the Conservatoire, was the director of the Schola before d'Indy took over. D'Indy set the curriculum, which fostered the study of late Baroque and early Classical works, Gregorian chant, and Renaissance polyphony. According to the Oxford Companion to Music, "A solid grounding in technique was encouraged, rather than originality, and the only graduates who could stand comparison with the best Conservatoire students were Magnard, Roussel, Déodat de Séverac, and Pierre de Bréville." The school was originally located in Montparnasse; in 1900 it moved to its present site, a former convent in the Quartier Latin.

Thomas Aquinas writes in the Summa Theologica: "Music is the exaltation of the mind derived from things eternal, bursting forth in sound." The quotation most aptly describes the repertoire on the Norwegian chamber choir Schola Cantorum's recording of hymns to Mary, the Mother of God, in which tranquillity, eternity and 'bursting forth into sound' are encountered in many different guises. The composers represented here have often chosen to allow their music to evolve in stable structures and remain within static harmonic spaces even when the music becomes expressive and dramatic: Benjamin Britten, Francis Poulenc, Maurice Duruflé, Eric Whitacre, Morten Lauridsen, Martin Ødegaard, Kjell Mørk Karlsen, Anton Bruckner, Sergei ...

Te la ricordi Lella - Schola Cantorum
Lella - Edoardo De Angelis e Stelio Gicca Palli (1971)
Do you remember Lella that rich lady
the wife of Proietti the usurer
who has the store at Triton
Do you remember four years ago
I showed her to you incredulous
that she was really with me
Do you remember after
when she was gone
and the people and the police
believed that she was eloped
jointly to one with more money than her husband
And I want to say you
that I was the one who killed her
keeping myself this secret since four years
I want to tell you but do not reveal around
do not tell anyone keep it within yourself
She liked going to the beach in winter
to make love in the coldness
but never took off her stockings
At the mouth of stream where there is a small bar
between fishing nets and abandoned boats
under the gray sky to make...

Throughout its existence the chamber choir Schola Cantorum has had high ambitions. The choir has built up an international reputation and has made it a trademark to include newly written music in its programmes. This is thanks to the work of Knut Nystedt (1915--), organist, composer and conductor, who returned to Norway in 1964 after studying in the USA and started a choir at the music department of the University of Oslo. The choir continues to recruit members from the department of music, as well as from the Norwegian Academy of Music in more recent years.
Tone Bianca Sparre Dahl trained as a singer and pianist and specialized in the Kodaly method in Hungary before taking her diploma exam in choral conducting at the Norwegian Academy of Music. She has directed Schola Cantorum since 2002.

At the mouth of stream where there is a small bar
between fishing nets and abandoned boats
under the gray sky to make as roof
the morning of the last day of the year
she said to me with her straight face
- I get bored of this story so now stop
take me up the zipper of the dress -
And I want to say you
that I was the one who killed her
keeping myself this secret since four years
I want to tell you but do not reveal around
do not tell anyone keep it within yourself
Maybe you will not believe
but then I've lost my mind
I grabbed her neck gripping strong
no stopping until she fell to the ground out of breath
Up there a tear of sun pierced the clouds
and I've buried her with my hands
being careful not to dirty trousers
and after I went away without looking back
Now I don't feel any remorse
and sometimes even return there
not thinking about who lies under the sand
I come here just to watch the sea
And I want to say you
that I was the one who killed her
keeping myself this secret since four years
I want to tell you but do not reveal around
do not tell anyone keep it within yourself
