Gregorian

German chant-inspired band

Gregorian is a German band formed in 1999 by producer Frank Peterson that specializes in Gregorian chant-inspired versions of modern pop and rock songs. The group's music often blends the sounds of traditional Gregorian chants with contemporary beats and rhythms. Over the years, Gregorian has built a significant following with their unique musical style, releasing a series of "Masters of Chant" albums. These albums typically feature covers of popular songs from various artists, reinterpreted with the characteristic Gregorian chant style. The band has toured extensively, bringing their distinctive fusion of old and new music to audiences around the world. Their performances are known for their atmospheric stage settings, which often resemble medieval monastic environments, enhancing the mystical experience of their live shows. Gregorian's work has contributed to the popularization of chant music beyond its traditional religious contexts and into mainstream European pop culture.
