American Record Guide reviewed the PaTRAM Institute’s Teach Me Thy Statutes recording in their November/December 2018 issue:
“the PaTRAM ensemble has lived up to every element of its creed. And they’ve done so in service to the music of Pavel Chesnokov, one of the most revered of all Mother Russia’s choral composers. … It’s a lovely sound that fits these sacred works perfectly. Chesnokov is one of those composers who can have his singers plumbing the darkest depths in one phrase and going spectacularly airborne in the next. Suppleness is required, and these voices have it in spades. … Nothing sounds routine—not the music and certainly not the singing. We are in PaTRAM’s debt for their loving attention to Chesnokov’s musical prayers, and to the booklet that helps bring us inside them.”
