Chanted by Byzantine Master and Professor of Byzantine Music Mr. George Papanikolaos from Samos, Greece.

Cherubic Hymn: Plagal of 1st tone, composed by Hatziathanasiou, which is chanted in the Divine Liturgy of The Greek Orthodox Church during the Great Entrance...
"Let us who mystically portray the Cherubim, and chant the thrice-holy hymn unto the life-creating Trinity, lay aside all earthly care, that we may receive the King of all, escorted invisibly by the angelic orders. Alleluia."

No instruments are used when chanting byzantine music, only the human voice can be used and nothing else.

  • To me, this is Greece's finest moment in a long history great moments. I find that the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire to be absolutely fascinating. You have the high, rich culture of Ancient Greece and Rome, mixed with the Medieval devotion to Christianity living on for 1000 years after the fall of Rome.
