Synopsis

Product Description
Russian Chant by the leading choir of the Russian Orthodox Church
Russian Chant is a compact disk concentrated on the exploration of the old Russia's vast and varied spiritual heritage.
The combination of the New Age nature and the spiritual and intuitive experience of ancient-Russian healing provides for the body, mind, and spirit harmony.
The main efficacy of any chant, whether it is Buddhist, Gregorian, or Russian, is to banish the human distress of anger, greediness, temptation, and envy and to convert them into wisdom.
The Russian Chant compact disk offers two masterpieces of ancient-Russian church singing, which are widely used for healing meditation and relaxation sessions:
The above mentioned chants are sung by the leading choir of the Russian Orthodox Church. The choir's main mission is to revive an ancient-Russian performing techniques.
Eventhough the choir sings in a strictly ecclesiastical manner, the singing is not monotonous; rather, it brings about a colorful sound.
However, it is important to remember when listening to this recording, that the chants are created not as an entertainment, but as a prayer -- respectable instruments of enlightenment for all sentient beings.
 

CD Reviews

Chant - Russian Spirit
L. Miller | Bear, Delaware | 05/17/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In our search for God, He Who is in our midst, we are so distracted by noise even if it be white noise. Honking horns, telephones ringing, people demanding our attention for this or that...all in a day. We search for some quiet time - a chance to be alone and simply relax. A rare commodity in our times but find it for it is critical to balance in the human condition.



Amazingly, we have all manner of devices designed to save time yet, we seem to have less and less time. I take time to meditate, center down and focus. I am fortunate to have a home chapel which was an extra bedroom in my apartment. Nothing in there is distracting. Discovering this Chant Russian Spirit CD was a rare find. I am quite selective about the things I purchase and this was no exception. Once I heard it on a website I was reading, I had to find out where to get it. I did and have it now playing in the background as I write this review. I cannot recommend it too strongly. It is like nothing I have heard before including traditional Gregorian Chant. It is not like that at all.



If you are searching for a great CD for centering down and relaxing or one for meditation, here it is."
