How did the Roman Catholic Church influence music in the Middle Ages?

The Roman Catholic Church used the Gregorian Chant as their official music during the Middle Ages. Chanting was monotonous and performed by monks but eventually developed a more melodic sound. Masses were sung. The Church did not use musical instruments to accompany the singing because that was associated with Pagan rites. Secular music was extremely popular at that time as was dancing. Both were enjoyed at gatherings. Secular music employed flutes, horns, drums and stringed instruments. Church music and secular music were very different and the Church didn't have much of an influence on secular music during the Middle Ages.

Types of music in the Middle Ages?

Music from the Middle Ages, like almost all musical eras, consists of both secular and sacred music. Although we can only account for the music that was written and preserved which means that the majority of music that is known from the middle ages is sacred music that was found within the churches. Most of the music from the early middle ages is some type of a chant with no instrumental accompaniments and all voices in unison. It wasn't until the later middle ages in which musicians started to experiment more that the voices started to become harmonized. Most of the music during this time also was considered melismatic, meaning there were many different pitches and rhythms in only one syllable of text.
