Recordings

Gregorian Chant Introits for the Liturgical Year is a set of five compact discs that includes the proper introits for every Sunday of the year, as well as for all solemnities and major feasts. Four of our Cathedral musicians, Matthew Curtis, Amy Johnson-Pierce, Danielle Luckner, and Brian Luckner (director) formed a schola cantorum for the purpose of making this recording. It was recorded in the Sanctuary of the Cathedral of Saint Joseph the Workman in the spring of 2008.
