Greek Byzantine Choir, Akathist Hymn (mp3 download)

Order No. 009922D

Hymne Acathiste (The Akathist Hymn)

by L Angelopoulos and the Greek Byzantine Choir

in Greek

This recording contains all the hymns of the Akathist Hymn to the Mother of God, sung with the massed male sound of the Greek Byzantine Choir, for which they have become so well known. 

Originally made in 1994, it was one of the early albums that put Lycorgous Angelopoulos and the Greek Byzantine Choir on the map. This version has been re-engineered, and thus is somewhat clearer.

Performed in Greek with complete liner notes and hymn text in French and English.

Artist: L. Angelopoulos and the Greek Byzantine Choir

Also available as a CD.
