Few works touch the soul like Rachmaninov’s 'All-Night Vigil'.
* Its ancient melodies and rich harmonies awaken something deep within — a longing for peace, for beauty, for the divine.
* Step into a sound world where time seems to stop, as waves of choral light and shadow surround you — music that breathes, prays, and glows with quiet devotion.
* In its harmonies, you may hear eternity itself: the stillness of night, the mystery of faith, the tenderness of hope.
* From the first whispered prayer to the final radiant “Amen,” this music invites you to listen not only with your ears, but with your heart.
Whether or not you know the Russian Orthodox choral tradition, this music speaks a universal language of beauty, awe, and peace.
