The August 2018 print edition of Stereophile Magazine features “Outstanding Choral Recordings” in Jason Victor Serinus’ “My Backpages” column and includes the new PaTRAM Institute release, Teach Me Thy Statutes:
“In Teach Me Thy Statutes, 15 compositions by the prolific Chesnokov receive devout performances by the PaTRAM Institute Male Choir… Recorded in hi-rez DSD by John Newton and mixed and mastered by Mark Donahue of SoundMirror… Although the choir’s 42 voices include five basso profundos, many will seek out this disc more for spiritual elevation than for depth-plumbing bass. This is a recording for those with a taste for Russian monastic singing, rarely heard outside that country, and who cherish the consistently consonant harmonies of compositions intended to provide seekers with a sense of security.”
