5.0 out of 5 stars A precious, little-known gem., 16 Mar 2009
By REVEREND M. LINDSELL (Buckinghamshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this CD recently as I am a lover of orthodox music. On first listening the choir sounds pretty standard, nothing to write home about. Some of the pieces I already knew and the interpretation is fair - maybe demands a slightly larger choir. However, I discovered half way through the CD the beautiful works of Nikolai Sergeevich Lebedev (1947 - 2000), a composer of whom I had only very vaguely heard. The performances of his works on this CD are, I have to admit, stunning. The works themselves ('Angel', 'Prayer' and a number of pieces from his Requiem) are truly beautiful pieces and these last few days I have played them at every opportunity. Tracks 20, 21,& 22 are particularly lovely. It is disappointing that there is so little information on Lebedev available and even less of his music recorded that I can find (his 'Liturgy of St John Chrysostom' is available on CD - I have ordered one from the Czech Republic). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RECORDING. If you love Russian Orthodox music (e.g. Rachmaninov's Vespers and works by Chesnokov, Dobri Christov, Arkangelsky, etc) then you will love this album. I look forward to more recordings from the Spiritual Revival Choir of Moscow.
