"Many Catholics pine for the return of Gregorian chant, and for good reason. The chant of the Roman Rite represents the very voice of the Faith, a true prayer in song, one that can and should draw all generations of Catholics together in the Mass and all other liturgies of the Church. ...
... Every Catholic who yearns to hear and sing chant in liturgy should start to sing this music on his or her own. That is a contribution that each of us can make to prevent this music from dying as we await the time when it will be restored to our public liturgies."
The 12 Chants are these: Ave Maria, Adoro Te Devote, Regina Caeli, Ave Verum Corpus, Pange Lingua Gloriosi, Parce Domine, Asperges, Ubi Caritas, Attende Domine, Veni Creator Spiritus, Jesu Dulcis Memoria, Salve Regina. (Most can be downloaded here.)
