Heavenly music! by E. Lecane (Ireland) 4 Stars

I love this CD and I have been listening to it everyday since I received it. It is so soul-soothing and heaven-like that it transforms the atmosphere of your mind so you are drawn in to a beautiful spiritual realm of heavenly voices!

It is what it says, and it does it so beautifully. I most highly recommend it.

Precise, quiet, beautiful music by joan (Boise, Idaho) 5 Stars

The title pretty much says it all. This is my favorite "music to drive to" CD. All male Gregorian Chanting choir provides a variety of lovely, precise, quiet, beautiful music. Joan Rusk

If you like this, you'll like the music in heaven by J. C. Bosshard 5 Stars
August 11, 2009
It is likely unknown to many that Gregorian Chant evolved out of the Jewish Temple liturgy of the time of Christ. Even without understanding Latin, listing to this chant prayerfully raises the heart, mind, and soul to God. The best description of the feeling this chant gives is softness. Everything is so smooth, calming, and peaceful. There are no bumps, nothing sharp, just peace. While people of various religious traditions can appreciate this music, it should especially be cherished by Roman Catholics, as it is our musical heritage. The documents of the Second Vatican Council state that "The musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value, greater even than that of any other art," and that Gregorian Chant should be given "pride of place" in liturgical services.

This music takes me back to my childhood, and I find it very relaxing. It calms the mind and the body.

Jade Music is proud to release the first record by the Norbertine Fathers of St. Michael's Abbey - Christmas at St. Michael's Abbey: Chants for the Three Masses of Christmas.

Thanks to good marketing, good cover art, and good luck, this disc probably has sold more copies than most other recordings of Gregorian chant put together. It's often quipped that most of those discs have been listened to exactly once and put away--to the puzzlement of many musicians and critics, who point out that there are more beautiful, more varied performances by professional singers available. Yet the singing of these Spanish Benedictines has a special quality that probably...
