\nAs you may be aware the\u00a0Benedictines of Mary, Queen of the Apostles<\/a>\u00a0are about to release their second album-\u00a0Angels and Saints<\/a>;<\/em>\u00a0set for release on May 7!<\/p>\n

The sisters\u2019 second album, a year-round collection, will entertain and inspire, featuring 17 English and Latin pieces sung a cappella for the feasts of the holy saints and angels.\u00a0 Recorded once again at their Priory in the heartland of America, this new album is a dynamic yet pure fusion of their contemplative sound. The sisters call to mind the glory of the future vision of God in the company of all of His angels and saints.\u00a0 Check out a visual sneak peek of the album:http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tMF04ErFVaE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Last Nov.\/ Dec., the Sisters\u2019 debut album,\u00a0ADVENT AT EPHESUS<\/em>, with De Montfort Music\/Decca, spent six weeks at #1 on Billboard\u2019s Classical Music Chart, and the Sisters ended up as the #1 Classical Traditional Artist of 2012, according to Nielson\u2019s Soundscan. (That has NEVER happened for a group of cloistered nuns.)\u00a0Featured on NPR, USA Today, People Magazine and The Washington Times as well as countless other critically acclaimed press outlets, the Benedictines of Mary have created another beautiful recording of their music.<\/p>\n

Now, I would like to ask for your help in promoting their second album through your blog and social media. It\u2019s a\u00a0great piece of art and tool to share with everyone in this Year of Faith!<\/p>\n

Please watch and\u00a0share<\/strong>\u00a0this EPK\u00a0on your blog,\u00a0about the making of\u00a0Angels and Saints<\/em>:\u00a0http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tMF04ErFVaE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

De Montfort Music wants to push pre-orders of the album, because that really determines how the album is distributed; large pre-orders= better distribution! Please post about this album now or in the next several weeks, encouraging people to pre-order!\u00a0The best link to use for pre-ordering is:\u00a0http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Angels-Saints-Ephesus-Benedictines-Apostles\/dp\/B00C6705WI\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1365037814&sr=8-1&keywords=angels+and+saints+at+ephesus<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
