God's angels have always been associated with heavenly music. This collection of contemplative masterpieces - from the 13th Century to the present, performed by first-rate ensembles - is an extended meditation on pure, angelic beauty.
Hearts of Space Records and Valley Entertainment has had a long association with producer Ellen Holmes. Ellen's specialty is sourcing and sequencing pieces of sacred choral music to create compilations that flow almost seamlessly -- sonically and emotionally -- delivering heart opening, uplifting experiences to both religious and general audiences. Her production of the "Sacred Treasures" series set a new standard for chant music CDs and is one of the best-selling series of its kind. The album’s cover features Abbott Thayer's famous "Angel" (from the Smithsonian’s collection) and the CD is packaged in a beautiful six panel digipak.
