The album is comprised of 20 tracks, mostly monophonic Gregorian chant, though it includes polyphonic motets by renowned 16th-century Italian composer Palestrina and a less well-remembered 18th-century composer, Giovanni Battista Martini, one of Mozart’s teachers. Although most people know the Requiem via the celebrated version by Mozart, the composer was himself inspired by Gregorian chant, explained Father Zachary Akers, music director of The Fraternity and a singer on Requiem, in a press release.
