| Summary | "The St. Gregory Hymnal and Catholic Choir Book" by Nicola A. Montani is a collection of hymns and liturgical music compiled in the early 20th century. It includes a comprehensive assembly of Latin and English hymns, liturgical motets, and devotional music suitable for various occasions throughout the Christian liturgical year. This work is especially aimed at choirs, schools, and religious institutions, promoting the rich tradition of Catholic music. The opening portion of the hymnal features a blend of personal reflections and technical notes from the transcriber, who expresses nostalgia for singing these hymns as a child. They convey their intention to make the hymnal accessible for singers and musicians, providing transcription and referencing tools for the traditional Latin hymns. Additionally, the first few songs sampled include well-known hymns like "Hark! A Mystic Voice is Sounding" and "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel," showcasing the theme of Advent and setting the stage for other seasonal hymns included in the compilation.
