3.0 out of 5 stars real chants but low fidelity or previously released material, July 1, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Spiritual Chants (Audio CD)
There's a lot of chant for your money, especially if you buy it used. These are real Gregorian chants, and the Ambrosian Polyphonic choir seems live in liturgy, but it's incredibly low fidelity, if that matters. Also annoying is the labeling by Mass and Mass part, without the Latin title.

The Vienna Hofburgkapelle discs (2) are better recordings, but they are reissues of previously released materials (on "Mystical Chants," etc.). I tried to match songs on my itunes because I am well aware of this tendency to repackage and rename old chant collections and sell them as new releases, but those discs were changed in track order.

If you don't have these recordings, they are highly recommended as pure Gregorian chant. The Ambrosian disc has mixed and alternating male and female voices.
