REVIEW
This disc contains an attractive program of Byzantine selections for the Christmas and Theophany season, ranging from early chants to elegant choral arrangements by modern-day Greek-American composers. The CD will be available for review after December 1, but in previous recordings (our cat. No. J11), the Cappella Romana has demonstrated a high level of musical excellence and technique that does justice to just about any music it undertakes to perform. The expert direction of composer and scholar Alexander Lingas ensures historical accuracy and liturgical authenticity.
