Byzantine Chant in Arabic - Orthodox Music CD
Tracks:15
Total time:47 min
This fascinating recording presents a wide selection of rarely-heard Arabic Byzantine chants, sung (in Arabic) with considerable skill and authenticity. To the uninitiated listener, this will open up an entirely different sound universe of Orthodox liturgical chant--one that is quite ancient and probably close to the singing of Apostolic times.
The titles are given in both Arabic and English, but no text translations are given.--V. M. --Dr. Vladimir Morosan
