Hvalite imia Ghospodne. Composed by Alexander Gretchaninoff. Choral octavo. With Language: Church Slavonic. Musica Russica #GR 041. Published by Musica Russica (MR.GR-041).

Alexandre Gretchaninoff's choral writing, like Rachmaninoff's, at times takes on truly symphonic dimensions that can challenge even the most advanced choirs. His Praise the Name of the Lord contains a great deal of sonorous richness and color without being overwhelming in harmonic or textural complexity. In a festival setting, the contrast of the men's and women's groups adds to this work's appeal, while the strophic structure and relatively small amount of text (single psalm verses with Alleluia refrains) makes this piece negotiable within a relatively short amount of rehearsal time.
