  • Where can I find a translation of the text?

  • @cegr76

    On IMSLP there is a full score version of the Vespers translated into English.

    The Rachmaninov is OK, but can I draw your attention to three other composers, one of whom is a young Canadian Ukrainian who is currently writing new sacred music.

    The composers from the 1800's are Kyrylo Stetsenko and Mykola Lysenko, their sacred music is just brilliant.

    The third composer is Roman Hurko who has written some of the most divine liturgical music I have ever heard.

  • My favorite of Rachmaninoff's Vespers Set. Truly defines beautiful.

  • @sniperquasi The hymn is "touching."  What's it touching? You've no God, no spirituality, no soul. Just sayin.

  • @fpagliato My, late, condolences.

  • I don't know about God's tastes for music, but I really don't think God would like the idea of using music similar to pop and rock to worship Him.

  • My grandfather was buried last friday. This was playing so loud in my head as the coffin was going down, but so beautifully, I barely could walk away to go home afterwards.

  • @cegr76 you don"t need a particular translation. This is the psalm 104 from the Bible.

  • @VitaliyGR i bought it in a record store besides the singer house in central st.petersburg.

  • Does anyone know the name of the alto soloist?

  • I don't believe in god or spirituality, but the sincerity of the hymn is touching.

  • Gosh Rachmaninov Speaks to me every time I listen to him. This song is like a weeping kindness and grace in my heart. I feel it in my soul.
