REVIEW
The venerable monastic chant tradition of the Kievan Caves Monastery, which includes several centuries of singing in semi-improvised four-part harmony, is presented on this CD in all its richness and fullness. The choir’s singing reflects the sensitive and inspired leadership of Deacon Dmitry Bolgarsky (also featured on our CD cat. no. B71), which makes this a standout among a number of similar discs. Since the style of Kievan Caves Monastery was very influential throughout Russia, this CD will be recognized and appreciated by all lovers of “traditional” Russian monastic singing.--V.M.
