About

The Choeur des Moines de l’Abbaye Saint Pierre de Solesmes (Monks’ Choir of the Solesmes Abbey) is regarded as the unquestionable reference of Gregorian Chant in its purest tradition and has an international reputation. Its recordings have made their mark on the history of Gregorian chant. Universal Music had in 2002 initiated collaboration with the fathers of the Solesmes Abbey for the purpose of rehabilitating its musical patrimony from archived tapes – many unreleased – and to assemble, possibly the most important collection of Gregorian Chant recordings. Today, the entirety of these recordings is gathered together on this 22-CD low-priced box set. One of the bonus CDs carries the recording made during the inauguration of the Abbey’s organ performed by Gaston Litaize.
