Christmas concert with enchanting nocturnal choral music

Rachmaninoff is famous for his beautiful melodies. Even though he abandoned his faith, his All-Night Vigil (Vespers) does fitting honour to that fame. This fabulous Russian choral music, deeply rooted in Orthodox Church tradition, is brimming with dramatic nuance and dynamic vocal colour. The world-renowned Mariinsky Chorus prove that these spiritual wonders can touch the depths of the soul both inside and outside church.
