Gloriæ Dei Cantores Schola has been praised by the New York Times for "expert renditions of Gregorian Chant" and "excellence of interpretation" by Fanfare Magazine. Their daily singing of Gregorian chant brings this vibrant and living form of sung prayer to life in these three stunning SACD's. In The Chants of Angels, using the ancient melodies and texts of the early church, each Gregorian chant depicts a new aspect or story of these heavenly guardians, guides and friends. In The Chants of Mary, we hear the Stabat Mater, the Marian antiphons for Compline, propers from the Feasts of the Immaculate Conception, the Nativity of Mary, the Annunciation, the Visitation, and the Assumption. In The Chants of The Holy Spirit, the chants tell us of the disciples waiting in the Upper Room, the rush of wind, the tongues of fire, and the spreading of the Gospel in the two masses for the Feast of Pentecost and Guillaume Dufay's Veni Creator Spiritus. These ancient chants still speak volumes today in this essential collection by the Schola that sets the example time and again.
