Customer Rating:      Summary: Brings back memories of Catholic High Mass Comment: It has been more than 40 years since I listened to Gregorian chant and I had forgotten how much I loved it. When I was a young child it was still the practice of the Catholic Church to chant the entire Mass for special holy days and other occasions. I never enjoyed attending Mass "except" these. The chanting was mesmerizing and the tonality so clean. I had the same reaction when I heard this album. The organ accompaniement to these songs is understated and complementary to the vocals. Very beautiful!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Beautiful and Hypnotic Comment: Listening to this CD was indeed a very spiritual experience. It makes me yearn for the peace and tranquility of a monastary.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Clerveaux Monks Comment: It was quite wonderful to find this as the monks had none for sale at the Abbey.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Hauntingly Beautiful Comment: This is an excellent cd. The emotion present in the monks' voices, espcially in the "Salve Regina" is deeply moving and beautiful. Highly recommended for anyone who is a fan of Gregorian chant, and a great first buy for someone who just wants to know what Gregorian chant sounds like.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Meditate as you listen........ Comment: This lifts your heart to God as you listen. Beautifully done.
