Hillier, Paul w/Estonian Chamber Choir Rachmaninov: All-Night Vigil (CD)

Be the first to review this product

Rachmaninov's All-Night Vigil - widely regarded as the pinnacle of Orthodox church music - deftly deploys "choral orchestration", an array of timbral and harmonic effects, and a variety of compositional techniques, building to a joyous affirmation of religious faith. Paul Hillier leads the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir in a sumptuous performance. (53:56 2005)
