{"product_id":"chant-monks-of-solesmes-discovering-gregorian-chant","title":"Chant \/ Monks Of Solesmes- Discovering Gregorian Chant (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eKnown throughout the world as the leading masters of Gregorian chant, the monks of Solesmes present a 2-album set that includes \"Learning about Gregorian Chant\" and \"Gregorian Chant Rediscovered\". \"Learning About Gregorian Chant\" simplifies and clarifies the world of chant for those to whom Gregorian chant is a mystery. The combination of a clearly understood text (read by Sarah Moule) with the fluidly sung examples (sung by the Benedictine monks of Solesmes) convinces the listener that Gregorian chant is open to everyone for enjoyment and prayer. The clear and concise presentation on this recording will make it a valuable resource for educators, musicologists, students of music and those who wish for a basic understanding of chant. \"It is a marvelous, brief explanation of the various types and styles of the chant, going from it's early, simple forms of recitation to the elaborate, soloistic forms. Dom Saulnier's historical explanations of the origins of the texts and their use in the service is especially interesting as is their development along the way into today's usage have always been amazed at the depth of his knowledge as to the whole history of chant performance and to hear his brief and very meaningful comments is a real pleasure... I need hardly say that the recordings of chant from the abbey are, to my mind, still the finest on the market, thanks to Dom Claire and it is good to hear them brought out again for the American public. For anyone interested in what the various forms of chant are and where and why they were used this is a wonderfully concise and informative recording.\" (Dr. Robert Fowells, Los Angeles Gregorian Schola (founder), California State University)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAd Te Domine, Offertory in Mode 2 (Liber Usualis No 321)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQui Sedes, Domine, Gradual in Mode 7 (Liber Usualis 335)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescendit de Caelis, Responsory in Mode 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVirgo Dei Genitrix, Hymn in Mode 2 (Liber Usualis, No 1865)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedia Vita in Morte Sumus, Responsory in Mode 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirigatur, Gradual in Mode 7 (Liber Usualis, No 1060A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditabor, Offertory in Mode 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristus Factus Est, Gradual in Mode 5 (Liber Usualis, No 655)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoc Corpus, Communion in Mode 8 (Liber Usualis, No 573B) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustodi Me, Offertory in Mode 1, (Liber Usualis No 611A) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTenebrae, Responsory in Mode 7 (Liber Usualis 680) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKyrie I, in Mode 8 for the Ordinary (Liber Usualis, No 16B) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloria I, in Mode 4 for the Ordinary (Liber Usualis, No 16C) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJubilate Deo Universa, Offertory in Mode 1 (Liber Usualis, 486B) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristus Resurgens, (Responsory, Mode 2) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiritus Domini, Introit in Mode 8 (Liber Usualis, No 878B) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiritus Sanctus, Communion in Mode 8 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDa Pacem, Introit in Mode 1 (Liber Usualis No 1056A) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKyrie Ad Lib X, from the Ordinary in Mode 1(Liber Usualis, No 80B) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecatus Est, Offertory in Mode 8 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemento Verbi, Communion in Mode 4, (Liber Usualis, 1065B) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssumpta Est, Alleluia in Mode 5 (Liber Usualis, No 1603) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSalve Regina (Antiphon) (Simple Tone) (Liber Cantualis, 94) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJustus Germinabit, Alleluia in Mode 1 (Liber Usualis, 1192) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuinque Prudentes, Communion in Mode 5 (Liber Usualis 1228B) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequiem Aeternam, Introit in Mode 6 (Liber Usualis 1807A) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUrbs Jerusalem, Hymn in Mode 4 (Liber Usualis1865) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearning About Gregorian Chant, An Overview of the History ; Elements of Gregorian Chant with Musical Samples ; Narration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46983144964317,"sku":"709887952166","price":220.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3793220.jpg?v=1762924824","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/products\/chant-monks-of-solesmes-discovering-gregorian-chant","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
