Chants de paix et d'unité

Description

Based on the idea of the assembly of believers, and sung in many languages, the music of the Taizé brothers is an integral part of the spiritual, meditative, and soothing approach. Founded in Burgundy in 1940 to welcome refugees fleeing the German occupation during the Second World War, Taizé has over the decades become an increasingly appreciated place of retreat and pilgrimage, where tens of thousands of young people from all nationalities gather throughout the year. The blend of prayer and music is a profound source of strength for the entire community, which through it carries a message of peace. In a turbulent world, this unique collection of recordings of Taizé chants could help listeners find a sense of inner calm and spiritual comfort that may seem increasingly difficult to find. The selected pieces recreate the warm and reassuring sound of multinational pilgrims who regularly gather around the community.
