All-Night Vigil

Album by Sergei Vasilievich Rachmaninoff & The Clarion Choir & Steven Fox

All-Night Vigil is a choral work by Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, composed in 1915. It sets Russian Orthodox liturgical texts for unaccompanied choir, combining chant-derived melodic material with late-Romantic harmonies and prominent low-bass writing, and it was Rachmaninoff's last large-scale choral composition, occupying a significant place in 20th-century Russian sacred music.
