Recorded in the splendid acoustics of the chapel at New Camaldoli Hermitage in Big Sur, California, this new collection of chant draws the listener into the peace of the monastery with its simple and meditative tones. The 27 hymns, prayers and psalms — most of them chanted in English — follow the community’s singing of the Sunday Liturgy of the Hours, including Vigils, Lauds, Vespers and Compline, which closes with the traditional "Salve Regina" in a Gregorian mode.
The 22 Camaldolese Benedictine monks perform a style of plainsong based on Gregorian chant, but with variations that are unique to the community.
Because of their ties to eastern monasticism, they also employ some chants in Byzantine style in two and three part harmony, such as the opening "Trisagion" and the exquisite "Our Father" by Rimsky-Korsakov.
