A chart-topping musical recording was made by a group you wouldn’t expect and in a place you wouldn’t expect. Several priests who graduated from Our Lady of Guadalupe Seminary, near Denton, formed a group called The Fraternity to release a recording titled "Requiem." Requiem topped the classical music charts for 13 weeks in the spring of 2017. Gregorian chanting has been a long-standing practice of the Roman Catholic Church and for these unique artists, its an important part of their daily worship.
