CISTERCIAN MONKS OF STIFT HEILIGENKREUZ - CHANT FOR PEACE

Introducing a unique cross-faith musical collaboration, “Chant For Peace” features the million-selling Monks of Stift Heiligenkreuz. “Chant For Peace” is their first major-label album since the 2008 global hit, “Chant – Music For Paradise” – which stormed the POP CHARTS in Germany, Austria, USA, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Poland and many others for weeks.

Now, the Monks form a unique musical partnership with bestselling Jewish vocalist, Timna Brauer – herself a household name in Austria. Timna represented Austria at the 1986 Eurovision Song Contest, and will perform at this year’s event in Vienna in May and “Chant For Peace” combines Timna’s expertise in Jewish sacred music with the Gregorian Chant from the Christian monastic tradition.

This is hypnotic, haunting, mesmerising music – music with a powerful, potent message of peace, uniting different religions on one album.
