The deep and sonorous voices of the Russian Patriarchate Choir have brought the undiscovered music of the Russian Orthodox Church and folk music of their native land to the ears of modern audiences. The profoundly spiritual rendition of the authentic sound of Russia from a bygone era places the choir beyond the traditional boundaries of similar vocal ensembles. An official choir of the Moscow Patriarchate since 1998, the emphatic performances and the fine male voices of the choir create an atmosphere of intense devotion, the ardour inspired by commitment to the liturgy of the Moscow Patriarchate. The Choir’s founder and Artistic Director, Anatoly Grindenko is a musicologist, theologian, choirmaster, as well as an acknowledged viola da gamba player and acclaimed old music performer. Under Grindenko, the Choir has toured across Europe and Scandinavia, Israel and Japan.
