Monasteries That Have Cds


Chiquitunga

Recommended Posts

I remember a thread a few months ago, asking about monasteries that have CDs of their singing available. I couldn't find this thread by searching, but I wanted to add a couple places to it.

The Carthusian monks and nuns have a few CDs available either from the [url="http://www.parkminster.org.uk/"]Parkminster website[/url], or by calling the Catholc bookstore near the Vermont Charterhouse at 802 - 362 - 1114. In Vermont they have the one by the nuns in Spain, [i]Cantate Deo[/i], and a few of the monks. I just ordered [i]Cantate Deo[/i] from there, and the women I spoke to on the phone was incredibly nice! The book store is very separate from the actual Charterhouse.

Then I just noticed the Poor Clares in Co. Carlow, Ireland have a CD available on their site: [url="http://www.poorclares.homestead.com/index.html"]http://www.poorclares.homestead.com/index.html[/url] I visited them when I was over there about 5 years ago. They are lovely and have perpetual adoration :j

The Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred heart of Los Angeles seel CDs. If you go to their website you can hear them singing, it's very pretty.

There is a chant CD offered by the Benedictine Nuns here in CT.

I have an older tape of them, I loved listening to it while I mucked stalls, now I just don't know where I put the tape. :idontknow:

DiscerningSoul - your statement about "mucking stalls" made me pause. I too listen to music while I am mucking stalls, but since I don't have a CD player, I turn to a religious radio station, but how much nicer it would be to do it to Gregorian Chant! I sometimes just say prayers, but I love the energy I get from music.

Are you a "horse person" as well as a discerning soul? I dread leaving my horses to go into the convent! :ohno: :cry:

MFVA made those cassette tapes ten years ago, maybe even longer and their community was alot different then. Too bad they don't do any more recordings.

I know the MFVA has a cd called, "Ecce Mater Dei"

I listen to [url="http://www.wihsradio.org/"]http://www.wihsradio.org/[/url] (104.9) now while I muck stalls, driving to and from where ever and sometimes in bed.

Yes to being a horse person, I currently muck 14 stalls mon thru fri and sometimes four more stalls when called upon, I also have my own horse.

And Yes to being sad when giving a horse up upon entrance, thou with God's grace it feels good to be entering into a place where you save souls with all your sacerfices!
