Students from the Sacred Music Program and the Notre Dame Basilica Schola, under the direction of Jonathan Hehn, came together to record the chants from the book "Music in Medieval Rituals for the End of Life." The book, written by musicologist Elaine Stratton Hild—who specializes in medieval chants for the sick and dying—is based on chants pieced together through her research as a residential fellow at the Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study (NDIAS).The recordings were captured by Frederick Hohmann of Pro Organo Records.
