Description
The critically acclaimed (and classical chart-topping) Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles share a beautiful part of their everyday monastic life with this compilation of Lenten music: poignant chants, intricate harmonies and rousing hymns of glory and redemption. Included are “O Sacred Head Surrounded,” made famous by Bach’s oratorios; “All Glory Laud and Honor”; the well-known “Adoramus Te Christe”; the entrancing “Improperia” from the liturgy of Good Friday; and three original pieces by the sisters. The vibrant purity of their monastic sound will peacefully escort you through the penitential season of Lent.
The album features a 12-page booklet with original artwork and all the lyrics in English (Latin songs are translated into English, as well).
