Lyrics Refrain Let my prayer arise in thy sight as incense; and let the lifting up of my hands be an evening sacrifice. Lord, I call upon thee, hear me; receive the voice of my prayer, when I call upon thee. Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth, and keep watch over the door of my lips. Incline not my heart to evil words, nor to make excuses for sins.
Ok -- I am an American Roman Catholic, big fan of chant, and the mass-settings of Haydn (in particular) and also Mozart, Beethoven, Vanhal, Vivaldi, etc. But this is next-level . . . it doesn't even sound like "music" to my Western ear. It sounds like some Angelic dialogue, where Haydn and Mozart sound like humans.
CorAdCorLoquitor 1 год назад I first heard this when I was 7 years old. My grandfather (almost 50 years ago) had a recording by the Red Army choir. I listened to it until I had memorized it, and long after the record was gone I still remembered it. Thank you for posting this. Let my prayer rise befor You, O Lord, like an evening oblation, and may my life be made pleasing to you.
Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will among all. We praise You, we bless You, we worship You, we glorify You, we give thanks to You for Your great glory. Lord, King, heavenly God, Father almighty; Lord, the Only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit. Lord, God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father who takes away the sin of the world, have mercy on us, You who take away the sins of the world. Receive our prayer, You Who sit at the right hand of the Father, and have mercy on us. For You only are holy, You only are the Lord, Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father. Amen.
hymnodyhands 1 год назад This is so lovely . . . it was the second work by Chesnokov (the first being "Do Not Forsake Me in My Old Age" -- basses and basso profundos are my favorite voices) I ever discovered. I also enjoy being able to read the music as the video plays! I am deeply impressed with Chesnokov's writing. But . . . is it just me, or does anyone else hear the deep basses throwing out an overtone of D SHARP (which is a bit of a problem in B minor)?
This recording is a semitone higher (the piece was written in B minor but this recording is in C minor so no that would technically be E-flat not D-sharp)

iwanabana 1 год назад it's B minor written on the score, but actually this recording is sung in C minor....and i thought i heard an E in the last chord lol
hymnodyhands 1 г I rather think it is the basses, because of a recording of Vladimir Pasyukov that is somewhere on these TH-cam parts (I think it is titled "The World's Lowest Voices"). He is singing a brief recitation around that same B (several notes below, one above) . . . if you turn your sound system up enough, you can hear the overtones . . . it sounds like he is harmonizing himself, and every one is a major tenth, including that D sharp a tenth above the low B he is pounding out.
Most beautiful piece of music. Absolutely love it!

Εκπληκτική μελωδία τόσο από τον Μπάσο όσο και από την χορωδία. Αληθινή Μυσταγωγια.

I hear it too... maybe some of the baritones (who sing the D natural) have a heavy vibrato that goes up to a D sharp.

sorry - that was done looking at the cyrillic for the piece. Pronunciation has a few differences - but you'll get the idea ;-)
Oh, please, can I get this sheet music in pdf? I need to have it printed...

Print screen sucks, MR doesn't have it :P
But looks like the first option will be a must.
