Christmas Canon: Katavasias

[eugenevez]

I found this chant to be very edifying.

[nijjhar1]

I can bet that these Monks have no idea in whose name John, the Baptist, Angel of Israel baptised Jewish men in water? Why He did not baptise a woman or a Gentile?

These are blind guides leading the blind to Pit. Prayer counted in the Old Covenant when the demiurge creator god Yahweh could not listen but our Father is Omniscient. Then why waste time in Prayers and not ponder over His Word? The End of the world is around the corner. Matt.13.v24-30 is being fulfilled. Second coming of Christ...

[GoddessofPoetry9]

My soul glorifies God through this music especially on this Christmas day. My family is not Christian and so listening to this song helps my heart to be at one with the Church. I feel my prayers to the Lord being accepted and I am at peace. Thank you so much. Ses efcharisto.

excellent production!

[4anuvis4]

Η Βυζαντινή χορωδία είναι του Θεόδωρου Αγγελόπουλου.

[gmacris]

@4anuvis4 ναι σωστά το έχω ήδη πει

[panajiotisk]

@4anuvis4 Ο Θεόδωρος Αγγελόπουλος μάλλον μετράει τα κέρδη από τις πετρελαιοπηγές του. Μάλλον εννοείς τον Λυκούργο Αγγελόπουλο.
