Complete liturgy for male choir in Church Slavonic by the Hungarian composer, Miklós Mohay, presented by the prominent Saint Ephraim Male Choir.
Saint John Chrysostom (398-404) is one of the most respected theologians, teachers, and preachers of the Eastern Church, who was known by the epithet 'chrysostomos' (golden-mouthed) due to his gift of eloquence. He was the Archbishop of Constantinople from 398 to 404. In the Eastern Church, the most frequently sung Divine Liturgy is known by his name, and its function is equivalent to that of the Holy Mass in the Western Church.
The spirituality, drama, and theological content of the Divine Liturgy in the Byzantine Rite has inspired composers for many centuries. Thousands of composers, both named and unnamed, have fashioned a musical garb for this liturgical text, trying to grasp its mystical essence.
The work on the double CD is by the contemporary composer Miklós Mohay, dedicated to the Saint Ephraim Male Choir and its founder Tamás Bubnó. It is a large-scale, well-thought-out composition, which grasps the message of the liturgy and aims to convey it.
