Customer Reviews

Chant Wars
I've been a fan of Gregorian Chant for over 40 years and I think this recording is the most beautiful and satisfying I have ever heard. If you don't have an SACD player, get one.

Great Chant
Sequentia is an outstanding group and consistent hit makers. This collection of chant stands above anything you'd get outside of sitting in the great cathedrals listening to the brothers themselves. If you want to know the depth of chant, get this album.
