In recent years
chant has enjoyed a
resurgence of interest
and popularity. More
Sublime Chant is an
extension of the highly
successful Sublime Chant,
delving further into the
glorious sounds of our
past and once again
featuring the voices of
The Cathedral Singers
under the direction of
Richard Proulx. This
beautiful recording
includes Gregorian,
Ambrosian, Mozarabic, and
Sarum chants, many being
recorded for the very
first time! Chants for
Advent, Christmas, Lent,
and Easter are included,
as are two mass settings.
More Sublime Chant also
features the complete
Office of Compline, sung
in English. The chants
are realized in
proportional, modal, and
equalist rhythms,
employing organum,
drones, tone clusters,
and ornamentation. The
use of recorders,
handbells, and small
percussion, combined with
the enchanting voices of
The Cathedral Singers and
the warm acoustics of
Chicago's Columbus
Hospital Chapel, make
this recording yet
another must-have for any
music lover! Â .
