Sacred Treasures: Choral Masterpieces From Russia

grim_josef very good collection containing the best version of "Hymn to the Cherubim" by Tchaikovsky.
BUT the so-called "pdf digital booklet" is nothing but a picture of the cover. That is very annoying! Favorite track: Hymn of the Cherubim (excerpt) (from Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, Op. 41).

bgillespie50 The rich melodic tones on this album and the deep residence bring A perfect example of the music of the era and genre. Favorite track: Great Ektenia (from Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, Op. 31).

about

Sung by the finest Russian and Bulgarian choirs, this extraordinary collection of transcendent prayers and hymns highlights a timeless Russian tradition of faith and devotion. For sheer beauty, there is little to match it anywhere in the world. The solemn ecstasy in the music of the Russian Orthodox Church can trace its roots back to the earliest days of Christian worship, via the great Byzantine Empire of the Near East. It presents an uncompromising search for peaks and depths of expressive fervor, aloof from all gimmicks. That was true of the music's multi-cultural roots as monastic chant, and was maintained as it evolved into full choral harmony in the late Romantic period.

Includes pdf digital booklet!
