CD Reviews

Tapping into the authentic Russian Orthodox monastic legacy
Father Dmitry Wieber | Santa Fe, NM United States | 02/17/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)

"If Dostoevskii's Brothers Karamazov were rendered in chant form, if we could experience the Holy Gospels in song, if we were able to lament the Soviet's martyring of Christ's Bride in the early years of the twentieth century, . . . if any one choir could capture mourning, pious faith, and hope altogether in one offering, . . .then this would be it. This is by far the best volume that I've heard in this Anthology. The series Orthodox Shrines of the Russian North includes;The Konev Monastery, The Kirillo-Belozersk Monastery, The Solovki Monastery (Vol I), & Vol II [ renamed Vol 5 here above , 2CDs!}. This, like Dostoevskii and Icons will be mostly meaningless if you are an unbeliever!"
