Gregorian Chant
“[The Carmelite Priory recording] is one collection that stands out from all others. … [T]his beautifully sung and excellently recorded anthology is the finest introduction to plainsong. … extra variety of tone is provided by female voices as well as male … McCarthy directs the singing with dedication and authority.” - Penguin Guide (ROSETTE recording - highest possible rating) “This should gladden the heart of anyone who has paid a visit to Clervaux and heard those popular summer chants, sung festively with distant bells. Anyone who hankers after the straightforward sound of a working monastic choir, well groomed in the style of ‘Old Solesmes’, should enjoy this record.” - Gramophone These recordings of essential Gregorian Chant, drawn from two of the most acclaimed and influential recordings of this music, return to general availability in a newly remastered edition by Paul Arden-Taylor.
