Gregorian Chant for Prayer | A Holy Hour of Traditional Catholic Music

Spend a quiet hour with traditional Catholic chant: Pater Noster, Ave Maria, the Magnificat, Pange lingua, Salve Regina and other prayers from the Church's musical tradition. Nine credited human recordings return in three cycles, followed by a closing Pater Noster and a short period of silent prayer. Latin titles, English meanings and performer names appear briefly, then fade away. Kyrie eleison is sung in Greek. This is a devotional listening compilation, not a recording of a complete liturgical service or a live Holy Hour. If this helps you pray, subscribe to Sapientia Catholica for Catholic prayers and sacred music.
