Gregorian Chants

Some months ago, I purchased a CD of Gregorian Chants: Salve Regina. Benedictine Monks of the Abbey of Saint-Maurice and Saint-Maur, Clervaus http://www.discogs.com/Traditional-Salve-Regina-Gregorian-Chant/release/3100573.  I was buying CDs to play while I was reading, and Gregorian Chants seemed to be a good fit.

I am currently reading a book by Louise Penny, The Beautiful Mystery, http://www.louisepenny.com/ which is set in a monastery, and has to do with monks who sing Gregorian Chants. Beautifully, captivating the world. And then, there was a murder at the monastery.

Hmmm. The dichotomy of life.

I am really enjoying this book as much as I have enjoyed the others in the series.
