SUMMARY:Tenebrae
DESCRIPTION:Tenebrae: Russian Treasures\nCurrently Sold Out – please add your name to the waiting list using the link below.  \nRare choral gems and celebrated sacred music from the Russian Orthodox Church. \nMost Christian liturgies are strongly associated with singing\, but none are defined by the intoned human voice quite like those of the Eastern Orthodox Churches. The ‘spoken’ word is entirely absent from the Russian liturgy\, lacking as it does the element of spiritual theatre endowed by the solemn chants of the Znamenny\, Kievan and oth-er chant traditions. No surprise then\, that there should be a wealth of choral music associated with this liturgy\, dating back to the 16th Century and evolving more-or-less uninterrupted until the sudden decline in the Church’s fortunes which accompanied the Bolshevik Rebellion in 1917. \nRussian choral music has been a feature in Tenebrae’s concert performances since the choir’s inception\, and this exquisite collection includes some little-known gems\, rarely heard outside Russia\, as well as some familiar favourites from this vast area of choral repertoire. \nProgramme\nSergei Rachmaninov              Priidite\, poklonimsia from All-Night Vigil\nSergei Rachmaninov              Velikaya Yektenia from Liturgy of St John Chrysostom\nSergei Rachmaninov              Heruvimskaya pesn from Liturgy of St John Chrysostom\nSergei Rachmaninov              Nïne otpushchayeshï from All-Night Vigil\nNikolay Golovanov                 Heruvimskaya pesn\nViktor Kalinnikov                     Svete tihiy\nMikhail Glinka                           Heruvimskaya pesn\nPavel Chesnokov                     Svete tihiy\nNikolay Golovanov                 Otche nash\nPavel Chesnokov                     Tebe poyem\nSergei Rachmaninov              Prositelnaya Yektenia from Liturgy of St John Chrysostom\nAlexander Gretchaninov      Nïne silï nebesïya\nPavel Chesnokov                     Heruvimskaya pesn\nAlexander Sheremetiev       Nïne silï nebesïya\nSergei Rachmaninov              Bogoroditse Devo from All-Night Vigil\nSergei Rachmaninov              Blazhen muzh from All-Night Vigil\nNikolay Golovanov                 Slava Ottsu (Yedinorodnï)\nPyotr Illyich Tchaikovsky     Legend (The Crown of Roses)\nNikolay Kedrov                         Otche nash\nSergei Rachmaninov              Vzbrannoy voyevode from All-Night Vigil \nTenebrae\nNigel Short conductor \n  \nTranslations are available here: Tenebrae Russian Treasures \n\n\n\n\nSponsored by The Sackler Trust\, The Greenwood Trust\, Mr & Mrs David Bruce and Roderick & Jackie Chamberlain.\nPlease note all programmes and events are subject to change and last minute alteration subject to the latest Government Covid guidelines. \n
