Sep 17, 2006 - Very nice paintings, and superb hymns! It's refreshing to hear how a different culture interprets Christian hymnary in contrast to the more widespread catholic/protestant hymns. Very nice!

Dec 4, 2006 - Does anyone know where I can find Byzantine chanting online? I've been looking everywhere but all I got were samples.

Jan 18, 2007 - Awe inspiring chanting, but too short to be entirely appreciated. Nevertheless, the essense of God is most unmistakably incorporated in such exquisite, and undniably wondrous chanting.

Feb 23, 2007 - You can buy these fantastic CD's from Amazon. Check out: "Sacred Treasures: Choral Masterworks From Russia". There are a series of 4. I thought that the first and the third ones are the best. Listen to some samples on Amazon before you buy.
