Dimitrije Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Greetings to everyone. "Hymn to the Virgin Mary " is my first attempt at writing sacred choral music. It is influenced by rich orthodox heritage, and also by the choral music of Arvo Part, and Alfred Schnittke. It is written for eight voices and textures are rich in diatonic clusters that add depth to triadic harmonies at the core. If someone is interested in sheet music, feel free to reach out to me.

J. Lee Graham Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Beautiful. It's hard for me to remove myself from the wonderful Bogoroditse Devo by Rachmaninov, with its ancillary expectations, but once I did, I just let this wash over me, and I enjoyed it very much. Very nice performance too, by the way. It's so good to see new music being written for the Russian Orthodox liturgy again, after a more than a century of silence.
