Gregory I (540-604) was the son of a senator who became a prefect (Praefectus Urbi) of the city, but like many of the finer men of his age he sold his vast property and devoted the proceeds to the relief of the poor. He founded seven monasteries, six in Sicily and on in Rome, which he entered as a monk in 574. As pope his administration of the vast estates of the church, in which he spent great sums on works of charity, showed conspicuous ability. One of his greatest successes was the establishment of the Roman mission in England under the direction of St. Augustine of Canterbury with about 40 missioners from his own monastery in Rome. He has continued to have a positive influence on the Catholic Church through his writings such as his Liber Regulae Pastoralis in 591 in which he set out directives for the pastoral life of the clergy. He fostered the development of liturgical music and his name has been so closely linked with plainsong that it is commonly known as the Gregorian chant. He established the Schola Cantorum (school of singing) in Rome on firm ground and the custom of using trained singers (a choir) spread rapidly over the Western Church.
