The Angel Cried

[silouanathonite]

Does anyone know where I can find a recording of the Paschal hymn, "The Angel Cried"?

[gzt]

Like vampires in a mirror, strangely enough, this hymn is actually unable to be recorded. Tough luck, kiddo. You have to see it to believe it.

That's my favorite hymn! One of them, anywho! I have it on my iPod, and I can't remember where I got it from. Let me do some digging to see if I can find it again.

not quite true

in my iTunes library I have it sung by ' The Brethren of the Valaam Monastery ' under the direction of Hierodeacon German(Rabtsev) in their album "The home of the most Holy Mother of God "

I also have it on a CD from the Monks of Chevetogne Abbey in Belgium - on their Album called 'Entre terre et ciel '

Hmm - wonder if I have any more versions :)

In what language? On what music?

Anyway, here's slavonic on the russian tone

(but if I understand the music well, I don't think it goes to the "Shine, shine" part)

Here's another one in slavonic which looks like the full thing, but the music sounds a little different from what I've heard in russian churches, so I don't know - it might be some special composition of sorts

Here's greek on byzantine mode

Here's english on byzantine mode. It's actually the whole 9th Ode of Pascha, not just "The Angel Cried"

There are some {english, russian tone} combinations on youtube also, but they seem to be live recordings of suboptimal quality, except if I missed something.

I wonder if I should contact youtube and ask for a stipend for advertising their site in here all the time :D.

hehehe

I suspect that the Valaam one I have is in Slavonic since it is in Znamenny chant

The Chevetogne one - to be certain I'll need to check it [ being a non Ukrainian , non Slavonic speaker :)

Back shortly

I haven't a clue :( being deaf it's not always easy and Chevetogne produces the booklet accompanying the CD is in Slavonic, French, English, German.and the introduction: French, Dutch, English, German

http://monasterechevetogne.com/index.php?taalkeuze=3 - there are sample tracks from all their CDs there

You can buy the Pascha CD from St. Vladimir's Seminary. They do a beautiful version.
