A course or prescribed sequence, especially in medieval Latin referring to a course of study or liturgical chanting style with specific rhythmic patterns.
From Latin 'cursus' meaning 'a running, course, or journey,' derived from 'currere' (to run), used in medieval education and religious contexts.
Medieval monks had to master the 'cursus' style of chanting—it's like the beats per minute for liturgical singing, with rules as strict as modern music notation!
