“We should never tire of repeating that Gregorian art does not speak for itself, that it is much more prayer than art, while ‘infinitely surpassing even prayer’, as an outstanding musician once said.”

“There is no denying that every time there is a reference to her who was chosen by God, out of all eternity, to be the Mother of Jesus Christ while remaining a virgin, to the Most Holy Virgin Mary, who was singled out from the entire human race, the souls of our composers of long ago were moved to find exceptionally powerful expressions which would speak to her of their love or beg her intercession.”

The disc comes with a booklet which has the English translation alongside the Latin. Click here to preview the booklet.
