OLAM Dad Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Don't just listen...PRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gregorian Chant is the prayer of the Church. Ora et Labora and I are in the choir at our parish. We sing Gregorian Chant half of the year and the other half is a 'low' mass. My point is, if you like it and hope that it continues then go and find it and join you voice to the voice of the Church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avemaria40 Posted February 4, 2006 Author Share Posted February 4, 2006 When my voice is trained a bit more, I want to ask my voice teacher to teach me how to sing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendan1104 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I'm a member of a Gregorian schola, and an indult choir that does Gregorian and Rossini. It's the most awesome music ever... and some of the oldest. It's definitely 100% better than Marty Haugen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezic Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 anything that becomes an encounter with God is awesome. (be it gregorian or haugen) Though i do love chant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need a well trained or polished voice to pray chant. God bless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkwright Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 (edited) I bought one on itunes called Gergorian Chant: Salve Regina. I bought the whole CD ($9.99 for something like 17 songs.. well worth it) I found this [url="http://www.preces-latinae.org/index.htm"]Chant Website[/url] that has most the words of the prayers in both latin and english. Its good to kneel down in front of the computer (a bit strange at first) then sing along and follow the words on the website. Though with my voice, I make sure my roommate is gone first edit: BTW my favorite so far is the Te Deum! its awesome!
