In this, their brand new CD, the Choir of St. Symeon the New Theologian Orthodox Church in Birmingham, Alabama, continues to demonstrate growth and maturity since their earlier CD, “Come, Bless the Lord” (cat. No. I-119). The selections on this disc continue to exhibit a bold and innovative approach to programming on the part of the conductor, featuring seven more works never before adapted into English. The choir is able to handle challenging music, with many divided parts, without any apparent difficulty. The CD demonstrates what a dedicated parish choir, in a city that is by no means a “center” of Orthodox culture, but which has been nurtured and developed over a number of years, is capable of achieving—truly an inspiration to all Orthodox choir directors in North America.
