Teach Me Thy Statutes is “Intensely Moving”

Posted by Reference Recordings on
 January 28, 2019
Teach Me Thy Statutes

The PaTRAM Institute’s Teach Me Thy Statutes recording continues to receive praise in Fanfare Magazine, and even gets shortlisted for a “Want List” Award:

“the 15 movements presented on this disc, although selected from different Chesnokov works, form a convincing whole and offer music of extraordinary beauty and depth of feeling, generating a sense of profound exaltation and devotion to something beyond the limitations of one’s own life. Even a non-religious person…can find this glorious music intensely moving and involving. … The flowing, undulating melodies are incredibly beautiful and profoundly expressive. The choral textures, blending tenor, baritone, bass, and basso profundo voices, engulf the listener in waves of ravishingly beautiful and harmonically rich sound. It is hard to imagine any way in which the performances on this disc could be improved. The combined choruses sing with perfect intonation and ensemble and with intense devotion and commitment. … One senses that these performers are not only consummate vocal and choral musicians but also devout believers in the message of the music and texts. … my words here are inadequate to convey the sublime beauty and powerful expressivity of this Chesnokov music. I can only advise readers to hear it for themselves. … This disc is certain to appear on my Want List for 2019”
