3.0 out of 5 stars rated for the music, not for the overall DVD, November 15, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Chants of Orthodox Easter (DVD)

First off, let me just say that the music on this DVD is absolutely wonderful. Russian Orthodox liturgical music is entirely a cappella, and is sublimely beautiful. That said, the video portion of this DVD outright (...). It looks like it was made off a bad VHS dubbed copy; the picture jumps, lines occasionally go across the screen, and actually the visuals of the singing are pretty cheesy. The choir lipsynchs pretty well though. When I put this one one, I just turn the TV off and listen to it, because the visual part is just so bad. I just hope someday someone actually shoots a DVD of a real orthodox service, because I have never seen anything so spiritually moving!

4.0 out of 5 stars Could listen to this forever !, February 7, 2002

Let us get this out of the way -- so the DVD is not so great to watch - NOT that bad either.

Now for the important message --the chants are wonderfully performed. You do not want to miss this music.

If you don't enjoy viewing (which you may) just listen to it. I keep it on in the background in my home office as much as possible. I find it makes for a much better attitude when faced with deadlines and work overload.

Now that I've heard the St. Petersburg Choir, I will definitely look for more of their music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Orthodoxy the best, October 10, 2001

This review is from: Chants of Orthodox Easter (DVD)

It is to my knowledge and this DVD has proven me no wrong that orthodoxy chants are the best of all known Christian Chants . A must buy for any chant lover
