A young Bulgarian bass singer has been recently having spectacular success at the biggest opera stages throughout the world. Critics compare him to Samuel Ramey and other opera singers, but they always stress on the slight Slavonic edge to his voice. Orlin Anasatssov is only 26 years old but the list of roles he has sung is amazing: Ramphis in Aida, Filippo II in Don Carlos, Basilio in Il Barbiere di Siviglia, Ferrando in Il Trovatore, the bass parts in Somnambula and Norma, La Boheme, Rigoletto, Puritani, Ernani, Macbeth, Attila, Simoe Boccanegra, Faust, etc. - all of them difficult roles, sung by only a few opera singers. He has participated at Covent Garden in London, the Paris Grand Opera, La Scala in Milan, Teatro Liceu in Barcelona, Dusseldorf, Arena di Verona, Teatro Real in Madrid, Rome, Karlsruhe, Toulouse, Amsterdam, Washington, Trieste, Palma de Mallorca, Puerto Rico, Lima in Peru, Palermo … It is impossible to mention all opera theatres and towns which he has visited as guest singer. Among the conductors he has worked with are the names of Sir Colin Davis, Georges Pretre, Mark Elder, Daniel Oren, Riccardo Chailly. Along with opera singing, Orlin Anastassov is also attracted to singing Orthodox chants and just as the great singer Boris Christoff, he also indulges in studying church music. This programme is a result of this. The booklet of the CD includes the texts to the chants in three languages: Church-Slavonic, Bulgarian, and English.
Neofit, Metropolitan of Rousse writes in the CD booklet: "Orlin is a new and precious pearl of Bulgarian opera art, a cause of praise for the town of Rousse and Bulgaria. With admiration and indebtedness he dedicates his present work to the 90th anniversary of the birth of the unforgettable Boris Christoff. And with his youthful zeal for the boundless heights of art he recalls to us the flight of the eagle…".

ROSSLYN CHAPEL, near Edinburgh, holds many secrets. Linked to Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, and all of the legends and theories (and some hoaxes) which form the basis of "The Da Vinci Code" and many more scholarly books researching claims of "hidden sacred secrets" and even the Quest for the Grail, the chapel is a magnet for the inquisitive.
Hidden away in strange carvings on the arches of Rosslyn Chapel, Edinburgh (immortalised in "The Da Vinci Code") is the cymatic notation of an ancient hyymn, possibly coded by members of a cult of John the Baptist linked to the origianl (real) Knights Templar). Now de-coded, so forget the myths and fictions about the Holy Grail - this is the REAL Rosslyn secret. The disc also includes Thomas Mitchell's "Songs of the Chartres Labyrinth" which is related to Rosslyn in several ways. |

Father Pierucci's first cantata to words by Regina Derieva, "Via Crucis" was described as "a major find" and " a remarkable work" by critics. Pierucci writes in a tonal and very listenable style but with a distinctive voice of his own, and this new work, using a chamber ensemble rather than organ, takes as its basis a short, haunting motif, used in variation form in all the movements. This work, like "Via Crucis" is highly recommended to choirs and choral societies.

The late Pope appreciated the value of music as a vehicle of prayer and praise which can "open a channel of communication between heaven and earth" - the divine art indeed. This CD focuses on hymns and chants which reflect the centrality in Catholicism of the Eucharist and to Mary, mother of Jesus. Sales of this CD aid the Church of our Lady and the English Martyrs in Cambridge, England, home to one of the finest traditional church choirs.
