I enjoyed the digital files of Advent music that I learned about here and elsewhere and loaded into playlists on my Amazon Cloud Player. Can anyone suggest a digital playlist for Lent?
Father can you put up another post to remind us on the date that the CD becomes available for purchase?
[In these USA it is available for purchase now. Pre-order. Buy it now and you will receive it when it is released. When I have pre-ordered through amazon, I have usually gotten what I ordered on the day of the release. They do a good job with this.]
WOW! I can’t wait to share this information with our group of 29 that are involved with the 33 Days to Morning Glory parish program. We studied St. Louis Marie de Montfort this week (and this CD is from “deMontfort music”) and we make our consecration on February 11th, the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes and the date of the release of the CD.
Or I could just read the first lines of this blog post to find out how to pre order. Thanks Father and never mind.
I would pre-order but I need digital music. I don’t have a CD player.
[You could rip it to your computer.]
Father,
Thanks for the heads up! I just placed my order. Their other CDs are fantastic. I listen to the “Angels ..” one a lot. Keeps me focused and at peace/prayer no matter what else I am doing like driving, chores, etc.
Wonderful music! (And how about those chicken tractors? Very nice with metal roofing, wire and easily portable. )
Thanks for posting about this, Father. I hadn’t known of this monastery or their music. What a consolation for the soul!
I ordered via your site, one for me and one for our priest. He plays their music quietly during confession time, in the church, since we don’t have a soundproof confessional. We have CCD on Wednesday nights and about every five or six weeks he takes one of those nights to hear the elementary kids’ confessions and then the next week, the high school confessions. When else would they be exposed to such music…or go to confession? Also emailed a link to your earlier post on the Sisters to all the ladies of our Altar Society and one of the husbands stopped me after Mass to say how much he enjoyed watching that video of the Sisters. We’re blessed that our priest offers confession before every single Mass, even daily. God bless you, Father Z.
Lovely.
I preordered. Hopefully my 14 year old can get it off the CD for me.

Computer DVDs will play CDs
This morning NPR broadcast an interview with the prioress, Mother Cecilia. Lovely!
You can listen to it here: http://www.npr.org/blogs/deceptivecadence/2014/02/11/274686955/monastic-life-at-the-top-of-the-charts
The 6th graders last year were mesmerized when I played this during class. I can not wait to play the Lenten CD on Sunday mornings as I welcome the CCD students into the class room… It will ring through the halls. Thank you, Fr. Z, for the post.
I ordered mine last night. Thanks for the reminder!
I just downloaded the music from iTunes.
Digital download available via the iStore for Apple devices (I bought a digital copy for about ten bucks US)
It’s beautiful and they also loaded it into my Cloud Player. I was listening as the ladies competed in the Slopestyle in Sochi. It’s was surreal.
It was like they were skiing in Heaven!
We bought three copies! Can’t wait to get it! One for us, and two are gifts.
Mine came in today’s mail; waiting for a quiet reflective time to listen !
pax et bonum
