Uneven production levels, music only okay Oct 20, 2008
Sadly, there are some serious problems with extraneous noise and volume irregularity on this disc.
Some of the cuts are more clear than others, and all are exuberantly sung. I would prefer more texture from this very rich musical heritage.
Lovely liturgical music! Jul 13, 2008 Glory be to the heavens above! The a capella singing as always sounds as though the angels themselves were putting on a very special Church service. Incredible harmonizing, inflections, soft, loud - wonderful listening. It gives one a sense of utter peace and harmony with the universe and all that live within it. If all nations would only "speak to each other through music", there would, indeed, be peace upon this earth!
Russian Church Music Jan 06, 2008 I was asked by one of my godsons to find this cd for him, being an obliging godfather I did. I listened to it, the choir is very good. It is a good cd of Russian Orthodox Church Music for anybody interested in Religious music.

Moving, intense music. Apr 30, 2006 I've had this album for a little over a year now and still listen to it regularly. It's a favorite in my car, especially in the early morning while driving my kids to school. The combination of the sunrise and the moving vocals combine to leave me feeling full of life, ready to move on with my day. The chorus is truly incredible, and with a decent sound system the feeling of being in the midst of all those deep voices is something memorable.
I love the sound and style of Russian music, and this CD has been wonderful when I'm in the mood for something more meaningful.
I'm not a music expert or Russian linguist, nor will you find me in a church on Sunday. I enjoy good music of all forms, and no matter what your religion or linguistic affiliation, this is excellent music that is sure to add something to your collection.

peaceful moment to soothe you and draw you closer to Him. Aug 03, 2001 The themes and songs remind me of an ancient Russia when the Church is at peak and predominantly practiced at the whole of Russia.Just imagine yourself in one of those great cathedral with the choir singing and the priest celebrating the mass.The song that echoed in the great cathedral wall will surely put ones to heavenly realm,a sense of calm and joy one will always remember....
