Amazon.com All chant discs are not alike, and this is one of the best all-around recordings, both for its program and performances. The music covers several centuries and geographi c regions and, consequently, includes examples of different monastic traditions and compositional styles. This very fine male-voice choir not only sings the notes beautifully and uniformly, but also conveys the individual character and textual meaning of each chant in a natural, unlabored style. Among these 18 introits, hymns, antiphons, and responsories are some of the gems of chant repertoire, including "Veni sancte Spiritus," and "Salve festa dies." --David Vernier, ISBN13: B00000295L ISBN10: B00000295L Material Type: audioCD Show more
