| A Vigil Service to St. Simon of Athos, originally recorded in 1981 in the Monastery church at Simonopetra on Mt. Athos. |
|
|
 By: Fr. Apostolos Hill
|
| This is a recording of a monastic celebration of the feast of St. Simon, and thus carries with it those things that come with a live recording session; the coughs and human noise that are part of a worship service. In that regard, the piety and reverence of the singers stands out as unique among the more recent Simonopetra recordings. Owing to the age of the recording, different voices are heard (obviously) and some beautiful hymns are movingly conveyed. One gets the sense of standing in the monestary church for a service in this recording, which owing to its unornamented design, is unpretentious and innocent. |
