Liturgy of St John Chrysostom

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Corydon Singers & Matthew Best

Liturgy of St John Chrysostom is a choral composition by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1878. The work sets the Eastern Orthodox Divine Liturgy in Romantic-era choral writing that blends chant-like homophony with rich harmonic colouring and orchestral-inspired sonorities, reflecting Tchaikovsky's engagement with Russian sacred music and representing a relatively rare example of liturgical music in his output.
First released: November 1997
