- Reconstruction of the Byzantine Sanctuary of Hagia Sophia's Church - It's better to view in HD
Ricostruzione digitale del Santuario della Cattedrale di Hagia Sophia - E' raccomandabile la visione in alta definizione (HD)
The Glories of Byzantium at Constantinople. 💙💕 Byzantium will forever remain in our hearts. 💙💕
There's no such thing as byzkanteum". There's remains of rome (illegitimate), or eastern roman empire.
@@pixelnazgul Byzantium was the original name of the city.
My god, I have no idea where you have found this glorious rendition of “Αναστάσεως ημέρα/Resurrection Day” chant with musical instruments, but I can recognize the sound of those Byzantine instruments of old and the wonderful melody that is reminiscent of Byzantine secular music from a mile away!!
Thanks I've tried searching the song on TH-cam using the Greek Title you gave without success. I'd be grateful, along with others, if you could find a link.
It's from christodoulos halaris instrumental byzantine music
Thank you from Greece! We didn't build only Parthenons but Hagia Sofia as well! :)
sure, we called ourselves "Roman" back then, but yeah.
@@gregcoogan8270 Did they speak Latin? No, they spoke Greek and culturally, they were Greek.
@@aslater5 Yes they did speak Latin in some parts of the empire, and they still call themselves Romans. If you have an issue with that, you should invent a time machine, go back to that time, and argue with them about it.
Excellent work and amazing choice of hymn. Well done to you!
musica superba...... fantastico!!!!

Let the church be honoured and marvelled among all other churches and along with it the glory of orthodoxy .
Άναστάσεως ἡμέρα λαμπρυνθῶμεν Λαοί Πάσχα Κυρίου, Πάσχα· ἐκ γὰρ θανάτου πρὸς ζωήν, καὶ ἐκ γῆς πρὸς οὐρανόν, Χριστὸς ὁ Θεός, ἡμᾶς διεβίβασεν, ἐπινίκιον ᾄδοντας
Lastly, there also may be a single candle in the middle of the altar table. This is lit with the holy light, in some places this is from the miracle of the Holy Fire at the Holy Sepulchre. This light is never snuffed out and is supposed to be kept going constantly. There may also be a blessing cross on the Priest's right hand side on the altar table.
In the video, the altar table is really minimalistic.
The altar table should be a cube and pretty close to 1 cubit wide, long and high. Probably in Hagia Sophia it would have been made of stone because of it's prominence. It would also be "clothed" in a white garment (unseen), and with a larger, more elaborate cloth on top, sometimes this can be changed out based on the feast or fast. The relics in Byzantine altar tables are actually sealed inside of the altar.
The music tickles my spine.
That reconstruction has a beautiful artistry to it.
You see the plain altar/holy table within the templon and curtains. No iconostasis, correct. This came after 1200 AD and was not fully developed until the 16th century. Western churches were also like this with a variant of the altar screen and rood which separated the nave from the sanctuary. Good job this!
Beautiful work!
Some altars do have two candles on each side, this is usually in addition to the 7 branch candlestand. Behind the altar should be a cross, either a crucifix icon or a gold cross. Some churches also keep the liturgical fans alongside this cross. Again, also depending on the local tradition, processional candles may be beside these behind the altar.
I am pretty sure there were more icons inside the Hagia Sophia
Yes but it would took extra work
Yes, but we don’t know where and what they are and what they look like. Better to just put nothing I guess.
@@EndietheEnderman It’s sad that most mosaics were plastered over by the Turks. It makes me really sad
@@juancastillo2900 a lot of mosaics were conserved at xix century, but the brothers Gaspar and guiseppe Fossati cover it with oil painting, and the mosaics was destroyed by that
Also, the relics within the antimension are separate from the altar itself. The antimension can serve as an altar where a consecrated altar isn't available.
The antimension isn't unfolded on the table unless a Liturgy is being conducted. Otherwise it is kept folded in the center of the table with the gospel book laid on top of it.
The altar also should have a artophorion (tabernacle) to hold the eucharist, a 7 branch candlestand (actually where the cross is sitting in the image). (continue)
You have to take in consideration: a) This is just an schematic reconstruction. b) Hagia Sophia was a church from VI to XV centuries and the Byzantine usage varied across the centuries. The primitive usage in Holy tables was: nothing was put on them when the liturgy was not celebrated (that was also the case in western altars). But does this schematic altar represent that primitve usage of the VI century or XV century? I think is just that: schematic using a software.
We have an account from the great Byzantine Historian, Steve Runciman, that Sultan Fatih climbed on the altar to do his Islamic prostrations. Which means that the altar was large enough to accommodate a person on it. I also have my doubts about the altar being a table with legs. One simply has to refer to other Byzantine churches from Mount Sinai, to the Holy Land, to Cyprus, and across Greece, to ascertain its form.
Belle musiquecet chant et avec les art bysantine
@youcip I fedeli non potevano entrare nel "Santuario", luogo deputato solo al clero per la celebrazione dei "misteri ineffabili" (per cui doveva essere nascosto allo sguardo di chi stava nella navata), Il Patriarca si sedeva al centro dell'emiciclo, in alto. L'imperatore aveva un suo luogo deputato (qui visibile) fuori dal santuario a destra. Neppure lui poteva penetrare nel santuario ma vi si accostava per la porta a sud della iconostasi.
I had also assumed that this was a later depiction of Hagia Sophia since he has chosen to include icons on the templon, which wouldn't have been there just after its completion.
How can i get this music????! Anastaseos imera..with the instruments..please...let me know...!!!!!
The other reason I assumed it was a later depiction is because the icons shown in the building in the other videos are all ones that were added after the Fourth Crusade in the 13th and 14th centuries.
@youcip Parlando relativamente al santuario di Hagia Sophia bisogna utilizzare il passato: il santuario è stato distrutto dai turchi. Per il resto anche oggi è così: nella Chiesa ortodossa il santuario non è certo luogo per tutti. La mentalità corrente nel mondo cattolico non è la stessa e questo influenza anche i fedeli della cosiddetta "forma straordinaria". Ma questo è un altro argomento.
Beautiful! Wonderful job!
Just one question though, I skimmed through the description by Paul the Silentary and didn't see a description of the altar table. From what I know of Orthodox liturgical usage, the altar must contain relics, and presumably would have been solid, not an actual table. The form shown in the clip seems to more closely resemble Western altar tables (of the Roman Rite, pre-Vatican II). What were your sources for the altar?
Sainte Sophie elle est un pur beauté bysantine
Questo film, tratto da un parziale modello tridimensionale, ha scartato di proposito il pulpito e il suo corridoio che iniziava a protendersi dal centro dell'iconostasi. La scelta si deve a motivi di ordine prettamente tecnico. In un altro filmato, tuttavia, è possibile notare la presenza anche di questo secondo elemento.
Probably in the VI century the altar was almost bare, but as we approach the XV century most of the element you mention were added.
Lastly: first you state is like a western pre-vatican II roman rite altar table (they were quite elaborated) but now you state is "minimalistic" isn't that a bit contradictory?
@youcip Nel Medioevo e nel periodo bizantino era del tutto inconcepibile la nostra mentalità attuale di "essere visibile ai fedeli". Questa mentalità ha una origine chiaramente umanistica. Il Medioevo era, invece, essenzialmente teocentrico: è necessario essere visibili a Dio, quindi essere preparati davanti a Lui. Questo principio regolava tutto. Perciò, a volte, le arti più belle erano nascoste allo sguardo dei fedeli: ciò che contava era solo Dio!
Congrats is this your project?
You can see similar preserved in the church of st. cosmas and damian in rome.
2 - Le tende sono un elemento costitutivo dell'iconostasi, sia in Oriente, sia in Occidente. Lo sguardo, a differenza di quanto crediamo noi (ma questa credenza si fonda solo dal Rinascimento in poi) doveva essere fermato da questi elementi e NON PENETRARE nel santuario, luogo deputato alla celebrazione di misteri ineffabili.
Tutti gli elementi architettonici di questa ricostruzione seguono uno studio scientifico:
Maria Luigia Fobelli
Un tempio per Giustiniano
Santa Sofia di Costantinopoli
e la Descrizione di Paolo Silenziario.
Oh hello I wanted to ask you something can you show me the Hagia Sophia Museum on the mosque
I'm not Muslim where is the black giant Dome is I had never been there before
Güzel yapım, tebrikler emek için.
please tell me where is the iconostatus ? this looks so Roman Catholic with an altar out in front
It didn't exist at that time. Before the iconostasis the orthodox churches used what is called a templon, which were pillars and curtains like in the old testament to divide the sanctuary from the rest.
The iconostasis wall which is not in this reconstruction existed during 1204 invasion. It was a golden wall that was taken down in pieces. The crusaders made street women dance in the sanctuary to humiliate the orthodox church before they converted it to a catholic one.
The program used is SketchUp?
I don't necessarily think it is contradictory. I must admit an amount of unfamiliarity with pre-vatican II altars. Maybe I should have said post-Vatican II since it is the Novus Ordo altars which are minimalistic.
Could you give me a source for the simplicity of early altars? (being an architect-in-training, I'm honestly interested)
La presenza di queto stato di cose la desumiamo indirettamente anche dalla Mistagogia di san Massimo il Confessore. In Occidente, l'uso di tende appese alle iconostasi è chiaramente indicato da Innocenzo III in una sua opera liturgica rimasta celebre. L'Occidente, in questo, non faceva che seguire gli usi anche orientali dai quali già aveva molto attinto.
Might I ask what the name of this song is?
"Αναστάσεως ημέρα". (Anastaseos imera=Day of Ressurection). That one is a version with instrumentals included.
Thank you brother
Holy song 💙
Hello ..this a very niec.. anyone knows who I can connect the one he does that?
Fr samir
Quel est le titre de cette pièce ?
Yes, I can. We can communicate through private msg I have even some pdf's that could be useful.
Nice mosque, fidel.
But don't you think I want to argue with you in a bad way (my answer could sound a bit harsh but that's because English isn't my native tongue). Actually if you have more information about the history of the Christian altar in East and West that would be very welcome as is one of my interests. Best wishes! (watch the video of Old St. Peter's Basilica it's almost the same table)
I don't see how this resembles a pre-vatican II roman rite altar (if you mean the big and long altar attached to the wall of the Gothic and Baroque churches, and not the smaller mediaeval romanesque ones) Actually is quite similar to the Holy tables I've seen in Byzantine rite churches. The relics in a Byzantine rite holy table are sewn into the antimension. You can see an antimension on this altar.
That's because Hagia Sophia was an Orthodox Church!
MUZIK COK GUZEL.
Пойду на горшок порыгаю!!!!!!хочу на на горшочек сходить !!!!чтоб соседка с низу услышала как я барды исполняю на пораше
