Info & track listings

The plainsong sung in this celebration of the Feast of St Louis ranges from the earliest chants to those composed in the 15th century and, with the exception of the Sequence, is all still in regular use in the Liturgy. The chants sung here contain much variety and musical beauty.The Abbey Church of St Michael, Farnborough is an exceptionally fine example of neo-gothic architecture in the late French decorated style.

Designed by Gabriel Destailleur (also architect of Baron Rothschild’s Waddesdon Manor) on the instructions of the Empress Eug & eacute;nie, the building was completed in 1887 at a cost of some ?300,000.

In the imposing romanesque crypt are the tombs of Napol & eacute;on III, the Empress’s husband and last Emperor of France, their only son, the Prince Imperial Louis Napol & eacute;on, and finally that of the Empress herself. The crypt altar is dedicated to St Louis, Patron of France.
