Byzantion - Cuvine-se Cu Adevarat

The Holy and Great Monastery of Vatopedi on Mount Athos, Greece, was built during the second half of the 10th century by three monks, Athanasius, Nicholas, and Antonius, from Adrianople, who were disciples of Athanasius the Athonite.

From then onwards, several buildings have been constructed, most of them were built during the Byzantine period and during the 18th and 19th centuries when the monastery reached its highest peak. More than 120 monks live in the monastery today, where extensive construction projects are underway to restore the larger buildings.

A very good rendition of some of the most important works of Ioannis Papadopoulos Koukouzelis, undoubtly the greatist composer of Greek church music in the 13th century and the second best ever, after composer John Damascene. His hymns are considered the most difficult, especially the so-called ''slow'', including the famous "Cherubic" and "Preserve, O Lord, our Master and Hierarch". Powerful, majestic interpretations, full of the splendor of the last years of the Byzantine empire. A strong sense of the feelings of mankind facing God and eternity. One of the best studio recordings of Greek church music (and, actually, one of the very few releases devoted exclusively to Koukouzelis).

Beatitudes

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his Symphony No. 2 in B major, Op. 14 and subtitled To October, for the 10th anniversary of the October Revolution. It was first performed by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra and the Academy Capella Choir under Nikolai Malko, on 5 November 1927. After the premiere, Shostakovich made some revisions to the score, and this final version was first played in Moscow later in 1927 under the baton of Konstantin Saradzhev. It was also the first time any version of the work had been played in Moscow.

Dmitri Shostakovich - Waltz No. 2

Now the God of hope fill you all with joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. (Romans 15, 13)

The love for our fellow-men, but mainly the love of Truth, the divine Truth revealed in the Person of the incarnate Word, Christ our God, has moved the hearts of the Athonite fathers to give in to the request of ever more faithful to create, be it in the digital space, a website where those wanting to find out  about the views of the Athonite fathers on various current issues of spiritual life can do it easily.

The danger caused by the multitude of heresies of our days, as well as the growing confusion among Orthodox believers, generated by the negative impact of the secularization of today’s society, urged the Athonite fathers to take on the fight and confess the Truth.

Spirited by the divine love burning in their hearts and by the hope of victory in this fight, strengthened by the shadow of the Almighty, the strugglers of Orthodoxy lay down their souls for their brothers in Christ and preach the divine word “in season and out of season”.

May this their offering be accepted before God and bear rich harvest in the heavenly  “barns”.
