★ 庫特桑德追隨俄國古典作曲大師的風格,以東正教傳統加上英語譯詞寫出曠世之作!
★ 集結美俄聲樂家完美演繹神聖天籟!
★ DSD256錄製母帶,捕捉教堂堂音!
君士坦丁堡大主教聖若望(西元347-407)因強大的雄辯本領而獲得「金口」之稱。他曾寫下簡短莊嚴的感恩禮詠詞,成為今日東正教儀式中最常使用的詠詞,柴可夫斯基、林姆斯基高沙可夫、拉赫曼尼諾夫等多位俄國作曲也為此譜寫音樂,為後世留下真善美聖的音樂瑰寶。
鑽研東正教音樂二十餘年的美國作曲家庫特.桑德,一方面承襲俄羅斯古典音樂傳統,另一方面採用英文版詠詞,打造出這首獨一無二的感恩禮音樂,為東正教合唱音樂立下承先啟後的里程碑。本專輯以解析度極高的DSD256格式錄製母帶,除了完整紀錄「PaTRAM學院歌者」宛若天籟的東正教式合唱,更捕捉了伊利諾州「新葛拉察尼查」東正教堂的中華美優異的聲學條件,讓您在家中宛如置身於莊嚴神秘的東正教儀式,沉浸在充滿聖靈祝福的平安與喜樂。
