American Record Guide reviews the PaTRAM Institute’s recording of Blessed Art Thou Among Women in the September/October 2020 Issue:
“Depsite the common ethnicity and theme, the music covers so much ground chronologically and stylistically that the program stays interesting. … Rachmaninoff’s ‘Theotokos Ever-Vigilant’ sings out with the lush, spiritually-charged harmonies we know from his Vespers. There’s also a delicate embrace of the Sacred Feminine in ‘All of Creation Rejoices’ by Nikolai Mihailovich Danilin… I don’t know which is harder to believe; that the basso profundo who sounds like the very soul of the Rodina is an American fellow named Glenn Miller, or that Zheludkov, who fits in rather nicely with the old masters, was born in (gasp!) 1989. Add in the usual goosebumps from Kastalsky, Gretchaninoff, Chesnokov, and the rest and you have a program well worth exploring.”
