We always knew we wanted to offer a Gregorian chant CD, but which one? We love the deep voices of monks. Then we heard about a very unique choir, While the Requiem Mass is essentially a Catholic Funeral Mass, the chants of the Requiem are some of the most beautiful of all Gregorian chants. Perhaps that is because a mass for the dead is really a celebration of life!
This recording includes the Introit, Kyrie, Gradual, Tract, Offertory, Sanctus, Agnus Dei, Communion, and Alleluias from Mass for the Dead; and Invitatory, Responses, and Antiphons from Office for the Deceased. This recording reflects the unmatched authenticity of Gregorian chant by the Monks.
