'Polyphony' does not describe Gregorian chant.

Gregorian chant or Plaint chant is known as monophony. Many voices, unaccompanied, and all singing in unison.
Gregorian chant is primarily in Latin and is characterized as monophonic, meaning it consists of a single melodic line without harmonic accompaniment. It is traditionally performed a cappella, without instrumental support. While these characteristics are typical, variations and adaptations can occur, but the essence of Gregorian chant is rooted in these elements.
