Love this hymn, it is so moving. I have never heard it at Liturgy, but perhaps Holy Virgin Cath in San Francisco will do it some time. D. Alexandr D'Maddalena
This is the Cherubic hymn I was thinking of when I wrote my other note. This is the best of the Best by Tchaikovsky in my opinion. Thank you for showing the score. Alexandr D'Maddalena
Sadly this rare opus by Tchaikovsky was never recorded as a complete set by one and the same choir. But I have found 8 pieces out of 9 (except No. 2) and will eventually post them all after I've finished Bortnyansky, which should happen until the end of June :)
Not to come across as stupid and/or ignorant, but what language is it?!?!?! The piece is really pretty, as is the choir, and I'm just curious as to what the language is...
It's Church Slavonic, used in Orthodox churches the way Latin is used in Roman Catholicism (but, having much in common with Old Slavonic, the predecessor of modern Slavic languages such as Russian and Bulgarian, for example, much more understandable without special education to Russian speakers in comparison with Latin for modern Europeans :)

Do you have the recording of all nine pieces? If not, do you know where I might find it? These are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Да, верно. Но на буклете диска почему-то Korniev, по-русски на автомате написал :) исправлено.
