The Palm Sunday, a Sunday before Easter, is one of the Twelve Great feasts. On that day Jesus Christ solemnly entered Jerusalem to show he was ready to voluntarily take His death. People met Him, Who was riding on a donkey’s colt, as they would meet a victor king coming back after a military triumph - with the green palm branches in their hands, shouting «Hosanna!». But Christ knew those very people would repudiate Him. On this day all the Orthodox believers still greet Christ, as the Conqueror of death, with the palm branches in the East and with the branches of the pussy-willow in cold countries.
Hierodeacon German (Ryabtsev) performs 26 chants (among them are the Exaltation, «Glory, both now and ever», «Sitting on Thy throne in heaven») in Znamenny, Valaam and Common monodies, as well as in Znamenny and Valaam chants.

Kolektion: Sacred MusicSubkolektion: Choir Arrangement by Archimandrite Matthew (Mormyl)
Male choir of the Representation Church of the Laura of the Holy Trinity and St.Sergius in Moscow. Precentor Vladimir Gorbik
This is a recording of Matins of Great Friday performed by the male choir of the Representation Church of the Laura of the Holy Trinity and St.Sergius in Moscow. This service is celebrated in the evening of Great Thursday. You are familiar with it through «The Office of the Passions of the Lord» recorded by the monastic choir of Valaam Monastery. Lovers of church singing are offered a wonderful opportunity to compare these recordings and make certain that though the manner of performance differs, they are equally beautiful.
The performance is so full of feeling that those who cannot be in the church on Great Thursday will feel themselves present.

Kolektion: Sacred MusicSubkolektion: Choir The Laura of the Caves in Kiev, which arose from a cave in deepforest, has never strived for the honour and recognition of the worldof vanity. On the contrary, it has sought out silence and anonymity, retreating under the earth by having chosen the strictest formof the ascetic life - dwelling in caves. Yet the need for its spirituality was so great that the all-conquering light of the spiritual attainments of the fathers of the Caves in Kiev tore forth from the bowels of the earth and its life-giving streams were poured out upon the surrounding lands, conveying the monastery"s glory to Holy Russia. «The holy monastic abode throughout its long historical path has known much sadness, yet through the intercession of the Most Pure Mother of God and the prayers of the wonderworkers of the Caves it has vanquished all of these troubles… Today, as we reflect upon the fates of the world and our homeland, it is essential to draw strength from thefount of the monastery»s spirituality, study the life and way of salvation of the holy saints of the Caves, to call upon their aid and wisdom. The grace of this source will never dry up for ages, as the beneficence of the Mother of God towards her gracious garden on earth - the holy monastery of the Caves in Kiev - will never dry up…", werethe words dedicated to the 950th anniversary of the Laura by Metropolitan Vladimir of Kiev and All Ukraine, the Primate of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and the holy archimandrite of the Holy Assumption Laura of the Caves in Kiev.

Kolektion: Russische geistliche MusikSubkolektion: Choir The Orthodox Church celebrates Pascha with great solemnity and prepares believers for this great feast through strict observance of Lent, or the Great Fast. However, the preparation begins three weeks earlier.
The hymns of the Lenten Triodion are sung during that period of time, when the Church reminds us of the parables of the Publican and Pharisee, the Prodigal Son, and also of the expulsion of our forefathers from the Paradise and about the Last Judgement, thus calling Christians to repentance. This period comes to the end by the remembrance of the raising of righteous Lazarus by Christ. This miracle gives people hope for the general resurrection, and the monastic choir beautifully conveys this hope to us.

CD 1: SIGCD165 - Firebird - Works by Igor Stravinsky for the Ballet Russes
He music commissioned by Sergei Diaghilev for his Ballet Russes has generated some of the most inventive and popular orchestral works of the 20th Century.
Led by Principal Conductor Thierry Fischer, these recordings capture the excitement and vibrancy of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in live performance - the first recording made in their new home of BBC Hoddinott Hall, Wales. This is the first release in a series of three with future repertoire including The Rite of Spring and Petrushka.
CD 2: SIGCD195 - Petrushka - Igor Stravinsky - BBC National Orchestra of Wales
Because Igor Stravinsky's "Petrushka" usually runs almost 35 minutes in duration, it either needs to be paired with a work of comparable length or presented with several short filler pieces to give reasonable value to a CD. In the case of this recording by Thierry Fischer and the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, the disc is filled out with three atmospheric pieces by Anatol Lyadov -- "Baba-Yaga," Enchanted Lake, and Kikimora -- which only add a little over 20 minutes to this rather brief package. Still, there are affinities between Liadov's colorful, impressionistic music and Stravinsky's brilliant ballet, not least the strong influence of both composers' orchestration teacher, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Lyadov, an older contemporary of Stravinsky, was the composer Sergei Diaghilev had originally sought to compose music for the ballet "L'oiseau de feu," before having to settle on the as-yet untried Stravinsky. Furthermore, Lyadov was practiced at composing music on fairy tale themes, so his music is a sometimes suitable match in style and content with Stravinsky's magical depiction of the folk tale of "Petrushka." Furthermore, Lyadov's selections have comparatively few recordings, so grouping these tone poems with Stravinsky's famous work gives them much needed exposure. The performances on this 2010 Signum Classics release are accurate and expressive, if a little restrained, and the audio is exceptional in its wide range of timbres, details, and dynamics.

CD3: SIGCD 205 - The Rite of Spring - Igor Stravinsky
The conclusion to a three part-series of Igor Stravinsky‘s ballets from Sergei Diaghilev,s Ballet Russes, performed by BBC National Orchestra of Wales under Thierry Fischer. These recordings capture the excitement and vibrancy of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in live performance at their home of BBC Hoddinott Hall, Wales.
Almost no musical work has had such a powerful influence or evoked as much controversy as Stravinsky's ballet score The Rite of Spring. The work's premiere on May 29, 1913, at the Théatre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, was scandalous. In addition to the outrageous costumes, unusual choreography and bizarre story of pagan sacrifice, Stravinsky's musical innovations tested the patience of the audience to the fullest.
This disc also features Francis Poulenc‘s ballet Les Biches, premiered at the Ballet Russes in 1924. Originally commissioned by Diaghilev to write a piece based on Glazunov‘s Les Sylphides, Poulenc instead chose to base his piece on the paintings of Watteau that depicted Louis XV and various women in his "Parc aux biches" |
