Abbot Philip Lawrence
Abbot Philip Lawrence, a scholar of chant, leads The Monastery of Christ in the Desert, Abiquiu, NM, where monks spend their daily hours praying for peace, working and studying in silence. They recently recorded their debut album Blessings, Peace and Harmony (Sony Masterworks), a compilation of selections from the Monks' four independent recordings of Gregorian chant, and also features four new chants recorded expressly for this new collection.
