"Christ" "Mass" originates from the Roman Catholic liturgy. The chart-topping nuns of Regina Laudis Abbey offer listeners a rare opportunity to experience the “original” Christmas music of the monastic tradition. Join us on a ride to Bethlehem, Connecticut to visit Sister Noella Marcellino, hospitality mistress of of the Abbey of Regina Laudis to share the story of the first American Benedictine abbey and it's chanting nuns whose chants honor the birth of Christ in their first Christmas CD "Women in Chant: The Announcement of Christmas" in this--final holy day series show! Regina Laudis means “queens of praise”. The nuns bring us Christmas music of the monastic tradition: ancient, seasonal Gregorian chants, performed as acts of prayer, from Advent to Epiphany.
With over 100,000 recordings sold and appearances on Good Morning America, 20/20, and Entertainment Tonight, the Benedictine Nuns of the Abbey of Regina Laudis emerged as an unexpected musical phenomenon with the release of their first CD, Women in Chant. Now, with Women in Chant: The Announcement of Christmas, this acclaimed choir returns listeners to the roots of Christmas music.
