Gregorian is an enigmatic musical project that was conceived by German producer Frank Peterson in 1999. Named after the Gregorian chant, a style of plainsong associated with the medieval Roman Catholic Church, Gregorian blends this ancient form of liturgical music with contemporary genres, especially pop and rock. The group's distinctive approach is characterized by the reinterpretation of modern pop and rock songs, giving them a mystical, serene, and sometimes haunting quality through the use of Gregorian vocal styles.

Over the years, Gregorian has released a series of albums under the banner of "Masters of Chant," which has become the hallmark of their musical identity. These albums have garnered a dedicated following, with "Masters of Chant X: The Final Chapter" signifying a pivotal moment in the series. Despite this title, Gregorian continues to enthral audiences with nuevos trabajos, such as "Holy Chants" and "Pure Chants I." Their live performances, such as "Christmas Chants - Live in Berlin," not only showcase their musical prowess but also offer a visually immersive experience. Reinventing timeless classics like "The Sound Of Silence" in their "Pure Version," Gregorian has skillfully bridged the gap between ancient traditions and contemporary music, creating an indelible mark on the world's musical landscape.
