Chant Noel: Chants For The Holiday Season Audio Francisco Lara; Santo Domingo de Silos Abbey Monks' Choir and Coro de monjes del Monasterio Benedictino de Santo Domingo de Silos

Arrived as scheduled in perfect condition. So happy to find a new copy of a really old but favorite disc.

I misplaced my copy of this CD and did not have it last Christmas. I just could not go through another Christmas without it. Excellent for relaxing and meditating, especially when stuck in bad weather and/or bad traffic that can suck the holiday spirit right out of you. Trully, it works for any day of the year!

I ordered this CD and what a buy! I love it - very relaxing and inspirational! I play it as I am going to sleep, or just when I need to de-stress during the holidays!

The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos never cease to please my ears. This recording is great for studying or for help when drifting off to sleep year round and especially during Christmas time!

So beautiful. I listen to it all year, not just for the holidays.

good for dispelling negative energy, as well as being soothing to the mind.

Very nice

In the 1990s, an album of Gregorian chants by the Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo De Silos called  Chant  became a multi-million selling worldwide hit. That success inspired the release of several "sequels", including this Christmas album. The chants on this album were actually recorded several years before the CD came out. The entire album is in Latin. I don't speak Latin, but the CD booklet does include English translations. Several of the chants don't seem to actually be about Christmas, but I'm not sure that makes much difference, since all the chants sound pretty much the same anyway. It is pretty monotonous, but I suppose it would be relaxing to listen to this while you meditated (not that I would ever meditate). New Age music fans will enjoy it more than I did.
