CHRIST IN GETHSEMANE - Two Gregorian chant offices of Maundy Thursday- the Office of Tenebrae and the Ceremony of Foot-washing- are presented here, sung in the dramatic style appropriate to the night before the Savior's Passion. "This recording... is utterly magnificent and the singing of this great choir is thrilling beyond words. Buy this album if you expend your last pence; it's better to starve to this music than to live without it." (Classics CD) "This album is a marvelous evocation of Holy Thursday's Tenebrae and foot-washing ceremonies, important for understanding the evolution of chant interpretation at the home base of chant restoration. Some of the antiphons have never been recorded before." (Fanfare) "Setting the standard for Gregorian performance." (American Record Guide)
