This CD is third in a remarkable series of recordings that bring the sacred liturgical music of the Russian emigration back to its homeland, so to speak: fine church choirs in Russia and other neighboring republics (in this instance, Belarus) bring to life music that in some instances was only conceived in the composers’ minds. This recording focuses exclusively on the chant arrangements of Boris Ledkovsky (1894-1975), long-time conductor of the Synod Cathedral Choir in New York City and Professor of Liturgical Music at St. Vladimir’s Seminary, and demonstrates the extent to which this Russian emigre composer continued the hallowed traditions initiated at the Moscow Synodal School by such luminaries as Kastalsky, Smolensky, and Chesnokov. The first volume of this series quickly sold out, indicating the popularity of these recordings.--V. M.
