5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, April 12, 2008

Awesome in the sense of awe inspiring. I must admit my bias for Bulgarian singing of Slavic Sacred Chant/Hymns, but this is worth a listen by anyone. The early tracks sound similar to Western Gregorian Chant but as the CD progresses you are simply transported into heaven.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Example of Early Orthodox Music, March 20, 1999

Wonderful to listen to. Light a candle in front of your favorite icon of the Theotokos while you listen to it. Burn some incense, and think of Constantinople.
