Striving To Enlighten Our Collective Minds and Hearts
PaTRAM Institute™ strives to spread beautiful liturgical music throughout the world with the hope that it will enlighten our collective minds and hearts. Our newest offering is a unique and original all-male choir arrangement of Rachmaninoff’s masterwork, the “All-Night Vigil”.
The Rachmaninoff in the Holy Land project brought together experienced choristers from around the globe to unite as the PaTRAM Institute Male Choir™. The singers seamlessly coalesced in harmonic unity under the direction of gifted conductor Maestra Ekaterina Antonenko to prepare this ethereal masterpiece of spiritual artistry. It was a remarkable and life-changing experience for all who participated in this unforgettable project. We are deeply grateful to our conductor, singers, producers, engineers, music arrangers and staff, who brought the very best of themselves to the project.
We trust that the listener will thoroughly enjoy the merits of this important work, reimagined to showcase the rich sonorities of the uniquely Slavic sound that only a male choir can generate.
The album was recorded and mastered by the multi-Grammy award winner and nominee, Soundmirror, and is distributed by the multi-Grammy winning recording label, Chandos Records. We chose the zenith of religious and historic destinations, the Holy City of Jerusalem, as the location for our recording. The Monastery Church of the Ascension, a peaceful gem with a rich acoustic, set amidst an olive grove atop the Mount of Olives, served as the ideal venue.
We humbly submit this album For Your Grammy Consideration.
