Summary/Abstract: Chanting of readings of holy texts is the joint feature of the praxis of all religions. Musical repertoires, which across the ages created the spiritual heritage of mankind, are either an expansion of assorted techniques of reading or comprise elements whose function consisted of marking spaces between readings. A study of various forms of cantillation makes it possible to capture the basic organic unity of the art of cantillation at the sources of three monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
