Free Music Notes for Chant: The Anniversary Edition
Free Music Review: Two Sublime Discs for the Price of One
Hit: 5 Stars
It must be said first and foremost that the sound of these two C.D.'s is outstanding. Compared to other chant recordings, this one is distinctive for its clear resonance. No wonder it started a whole trend over a decade ago when The Benedictine Monks of Santo Dominigo de Silos entered the top ten of music recordings.
For those who have the patience, the vascillating sounds of monks singing their praises to the Lord can have a sublime effect. If you give these recordings a chance, they can transform one to the serenity it is meant to elicit. They have the power of prayer through the modem of music to lift and transform one up from the harried world of work and worry.
At $10.00 the price of entry is inexpensive indeed for dissolving tension and relieving one's worries over the material world. Although previously released, they mix recordings from the original classic with worthy follow-ups. The first disc is a masterpiece, but the second disc I find to be even more placid in its delivery. Whichever you prefer, the results are celestial indeed.
Chant: The Anniversary Edition Poster
This set contains the two CDs that, it must be acknowledged, just about started the Chant craze in 1994. The music was actually recorded in the 1970s and 1980s (this new set has been remastered and sounds better than the 1994-95 releases did) and was on sale in Spain and offered at the Monastery of Santo Domingo de Silos for some time before it became "hot." Since then, hundreds of CDs of chant and similar music have appeared, many more polished then these, but perhaps these were so special because they weren't performances: they caught actual Monks in the act of praying, and the meditative quality is undeniably real. Whatever the case, this is music for reflection, calming down, re-fueling and getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life--which may be even more needed now than they were 10 years ago. Texts are not supplied and you won't need them; it's all about reverence and mood. Doing nothing but listening to this in 25-minute chunks will allow your breathing to slow and re-energize you. Each 55-minute CD will probably put you to sleep--and this isn't meant as a criticism. --Robert LevineClassical Music CDs
