Actually, the two pieces are "Memory Eternal" from the requiem service (not a Mass) and the Svetilen of the Dormition of the Theotokos "Apostoli ot konets..." The two pieces are not related.

This two record set is the ideal model of what a Russian Orthodox service should be like. 32 voices blending in prayer under the control of the choir director.

The Cherubim Hymn, on this recording, is also a great piece to hear.

@chelovek7 Grandfather also said that their were Muslim Chaplains among Cossack Regiments. My prayer: May we choose the right side in this thing that is happening in the world. Right side? I mean those who obey the commandments. :) Some evil personages engineered the killing of half a million children. When the natural reaction took its course the same evil personages blamed the people whose children they had killed for their response calling them lunatic savages.

@vladdrac88 There were were indeed Muslim Cossacks. There were Tatars who became Cossacks. Even Jews, which is why you come across the name Zhidovskii. There were and are many different Cossack voiska with different customs. It's not one united people. Don Cossacks are one thing; Grebens another; Yaiks yet another; Kubans different from those; Zaporozhians another people entirely. There were other groups that the government jdecided to call Cossacks because they wanted to form some border group.

@chelovek7 My Ataman tells me that there were also Muslim Cossacks....

Is this the song that is mentioned in the first sentence of doctor zhivago?

[chelovek7]

I also believe you are confusing the Don and Greben Cossacks. It is the Grebens and Tereks who were (are) starovery.

[chelovek7]

This is not going to change the fact that the Kalmyks were part of the Don Voisko, and contrary tp statements about all of Russia being Russian Orthodox Christian, the Kalmyks are Buddhists.

"The majority of the Don Cossacks remain devoutly Orthodox, with a higher proportion of believers than among the general Russian public. The Orthodox religion, part of the Don Cossack heritage, is an integral part of their culture "
