## Description

Music has always played an important part in the lives of early Christians. Following on from the Jewish tradition of psalm singing, the power of voices singing served to magnify the contemplative power of prayer.Gregorian Chant, named after Pope Gregory II (715-31) probably originated in the Frankishlands ruled over by Charlemagne's father Pippin the Short, who received Pope Stephen II in 754. In the papal retinue was a group of singers, whose chanting at church services took rootamong the Franks and was endorsed by royal decree. Eventually, after many centuries of use, the chants were written down, and these preserved versions are sung today. Chant has also undergone a makeover for the modern world. Featuring in popular films such as The Name of the Rose, after Umberto Eco's novel, and repeatedly reaching the top of therecord charts around the world over the past 20 years (Canto Gregoriano in the early 1990s, and currently a choir of nuns top the UK classical charts), it is also played in clubs as music tochill to, and has been marketed as the ultimate stress-busting music.The chants on these six CDs take the listener through the Christian story, or the Church year.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The Ultimate Collection of Gregorian Chants
  

*by T***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2014*

I have loved Gregorian Chants for many years and it wasn't until 1988 that I found one of the first CDs by the Hofburgkapelle/Wiener Hofburgskapelle under the direction of P. Hubert Dopf that I was able to listen to these on a regular basis.  Over the years, I have purchased other  CDs of Gregorian Chants, many of which were truly disappointing in my opinion.  But, I have found that those recorded under the direction of P. Hubert Dopf are by far the very best of the genre and this collection is most certainly evidence to support my humble opinion.

    Best overview of the riches of the chant repertoire at this price
  

*by P***I on Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2018*

The best compilation of chant, beautifully performed, that you will ever get at this price. The recordings are clear, the singers very much together, the Latin accent mostly good for English/American ears, and a marvelous repertoire.

    My favorite Gregorian chant recordings
  

*by N***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2012*

I own the original Philips set of these recordings and wrote the following review on its page:**These are good performances; to my mind, more enjoyable than those on the more famous "Chant" series from EMI, especially as regards pronunciation: no nasal Latin here. Also unlike EMI's production, the notes and organization of this set put the individual chants explicitly in their liturgical context, which is important for understanding this gorgeous music. There are numerous minor discrepancies between what they sing and what is written in the Solesmes editions, e.g., the Palm Sunday hymn "Gloria, laus, et honor," the Easter gradual "Haec dies," and a few others, which I found somewhat jarring upon first hearing; that aside, it's a great buy.EDITED 2010-09-24: Since writing the review above, I have studied the work of Dom Eugene Cardine, who analyzed the available ancient chant manuscripts and published several books on their interpretation. The notation of those manuscripts is available alongside the "official" square-note text in the Graduale Triplex. After listening while reading along in the Triplex, I discovered that the minor discrepancies referred to in my initial review were explained by the ancient notation. I do not agree with all the choices made, so I will retain the four-star rating; nonetheless, this remains the best comprehensive set of chant recordings I've heard.**The previous reviewer who referred to these chants as being from the 1962/"Tridentine" rather than the 1969/"Novus Ordo" Mass is incorrect. The chants indicated for each liturgical day are the same as those given in the 1974 Graduale Romanum, although most (if not all) of them exist in the preconciliar Liber Usualis as well.
