5.0 out of 5 stars a poor relation to the vespers? i think not..., 4 Mar 2008
By Thomas Neal (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Sadly, this work is almost always viewed as the poor relation to Rachmaninov's glorious Vespers. Perhaps this is true in some respects, as the composer has had less input into writing the whole work, as almost every other movement is traditional Orthodox chant. This may put some off buying this disc, but I felt this simply put the music in context, and added an extra element not always included in discs of Russian Orthodox music. However, the music Rachmaninov did contribute to this liturgy is of the highest standards with some glorious, soaring melodies, thick choral textures, and then quiet, meditative prayers. The finest movements of this work are certainly of equal quality and beauty of those in the Vespers.

As with their Vespers disc (which must be the finest recording, beating all Russian choirs, and definitely a better recording than the Corydon singers), King's College oozes perfection from every angle. Once again, the bass line is superb - deep, rich, sonorous, and strong - everything one expects in a work such as this. The tenors and trebles are of the usual standards we have come to expect from Kings' College, and the counter-tenors provide a truly fabulous line without forcing the tone nor being too harsh, which a lot of counter-tenors in the Anglican tradition might be accused of. The soloist roles of Cantor and Deacon are superbly executed by Orthodox clergy with truly superb voices, providing that raw contrast to the well-formed soaring melodies. Similarly, the sound quality is second-to-none from EMI, and the whole presentation of the CD and accompanying booklet (which provides the usual information, including complete texts and translations) is excellent.

Overall, a truly superb recording of a work that deserves to be better known.
