SATB choir (div)

Blazheni, yazhe izbral. Composed by Alexander Gretchaninoff. Choral octavo. With Language: Church Slavonic. Musica Russica #GR 043. Published by Musica Russica (MR.GR-043).This setting of the Communion Hymn for the Departed (sung at a Memorial Liturgy) is one of Gretchaninoff's most somber and introspective short sacred works. In it he finds inspiration and thematic material from a melodically rich Bulgarian chant, one of the few examples of his use of pre-existing chant.
