Orthodox Arts Journal Reviews PaTRAM’s Blessed Art Thou Among Women

The Orthodox Arts Journal reviews the new PaTRAM Institute recording, Blessed Art Thou Among Women: “The repertoire lineup is indeed star-studded. Here the listener will find hymns that are familiar and widely beloved… Throughout the program, there are moments of exquisite choral beauty, punctuated by outstanding solo contributions: by soprano Fotina Naumenko, basso profundo Glenn Miller, baritone Protodeacon Leonid Roschko, and basso profundo Alexis Lukianov, who poignantly intones “Memory eternal” to his late father, Protopresbyter…
