I am interested in buying some CD's of Russian Chant that will be comparable with Gregorian Chant, I've heard some beautiful example's of it at Serges's site but cannot find it else where.
Suggestions ?

Suggestions ?] I think the Valaam Monastery has a CD where they sing using the Russian Chant and its in English! Check the Conciliar Press website www.conciliarpress.comAlso, I don't know where you live, but Tower records here where I live has some beautiful Othodox CD's. Check for some of the CD's done by Bulgarian male choirs for Russian type chant. Orthodoc

If you aren't set on a Russian CD I'd recomend the new CD put our by Saint Anthony's Monastey. You can listen to the Apolytikion of Saint Anthony the Great online and purchase the CD via the bookstore on thier webpage. www.stanthonysmonastery.org

> Best of Kyrygma
A diverse group of choices

Keep in mind Georgian chant if you come across it anywhere (Iberians, not State of). It is truly beautiful.

John,
I will note your request, in todays world in is very disturbing to not find examples of Orthodox worship in stores, they are cluttered with the typical Gospel, Evangelical and Christian pop music.
I like to kick back in my solitude room and listen to chant, maybe read some scripture or what ever the Spirit promps.

Best Russian chant site I've found is here: http://www.orthodoxmusic.ruThe site is in both English & Russian. You have to order from Russia, but the CDs are quality. Quality of performance, production, packaging, etc. Even with shipping from Russia, a single CD typically runs about US $12. Their staff is courteous and very helpful. They can help you navigate international buying. If anybody is interested, PM me or respond back here and I can give you a few pointers about how to speed things along with them when ordering. Their English isn't too good, but it is sufficient. They ship very quickly. I ordered 7 CDs and received them in two weeks.
