Gregorian chant inspires us to recharge our spiritual batteries with its sense of tranquility and peace. Gloriæ Dei Cantores Schola has re-released this treasury of Gregorian chants about Christ's Transfiguration (formerly released as "Shining Like the Sun"). Full of joy and hope, these prayers and meditations encourage us to lift up our eyes and bask in the heavenly light of Christ. Includes chants about the prophecies of the Transfiguration, chants that tell the story of Christ's Transfiguration, and chants that highlight the possibility and promise of our own transfiguration. Beautiful, chant-inspired organ works bookend the programme.

Founded in 1988, Gloriæ Dei Cantores from Orleans, MA, under the direction of Richard K. Pugsley, has touched the hearts of audiences in 23 countries in Europe, Russia, and North America, receiving extensive critical acclaim for its artistic elegance, performance authenticity, and compelling spirituality.
