		The introit can be either sung or spoken, depending on the formality of the Mass as well as the preferences of the priest and his congregation.
		The Liber Pontificalis claims that the introit originated by the request of Celestine I, but it was in the reign of Gregory I that the familiar form emerged, and Gregory is credited with "composing" many introits himself.

		The "Liber Pontificalis" ascribes this antiphonal chant at the Introit to Pope Celestine I (422-32): "He ordered that the psalms of David be sung antiphonally [antiphonatim, by two choirs alternately] by all before the Sacrifice, which was not done before; but only the epistle of St. Paul was read and the holy Gospel" (ed.

	RARB Review of Gregorian Chant Schola of St. Meinrad Archabbey - Gregorian Chant for Advent & Christmas
		However, if you're like me and you prefer to have a little variation in your albums (you know, songs in different tempos, songs in different keys, songs that have differentiable melodies), then you might want to pass on this one.
		In these respects, the hour's worth of Introits, Antiphons, Proclamations et al (I'm getting in the Latin spirit!) are performed serviceably.
		I say "serviceably" because despite my lack of expertise, I can point out that the high end vocals don't quite match the confidence and richness of the lows, the consonant diction needs a little work, and the cutoffs could be tightened a bit.

		As far as the style of singing the plainchant goes, it is done pretty much in the way that I was taught and there are no real surprises.
		The Introits are all sung without the 'Gloria Patri' whereas the Communion sentences have all acquired Psalm sentences and 'Gloria Patri'.
