On April 16th Cappella Records is proud to present the release of Hymns of Kassianí performed by Cappella Romana, Alexander Lingas, music director.

Discover the world’s earliest music by a female composer: 9th-century nun, poet, and hymnographer Kassianí (Kassía).

The same men and women of Cappella Romana who brought you the Lost Voices of Hagia Sophia bestseller (44 weeks on Billboard), now sing the earliest music we have by a female composer, including long-suppressed hymns recorded here for the first time.

They close with two medieval versions of her beloved hymn for Orthodox Holy Week.

Cappella Romana is the world’s leading ensemble in the field of medieval Byzantine chant. Building on its extensive catalogue of this repertoire, Hymns of Kassianí is its 25th release. This is the first of a planned series to record all of Kassianí’s surviving works.

Cappella Romana explores the musical legacy of the ancient civilization of Byzantium--caught between Latin West and Islamic East--with majestic ceremonies for the cathedral of Hagia Sophia, triumphant assertions of superiority by Westerners, and fervent prayers for the healing of religious divisions. Fabled Byzantium ended with the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks on 29 May 1453, inspiring the two poignant laments sung here that give Greek and Latin perspectives on the end of a 1,000-year-old empire.

“Like Steinberg’s ‘Passion Week’ and the other neglected music it’s resurrected, Cappella Romana continues its ascent.” —Wall Street Journal

On the heels of their chart-topping GOOD FRIDAY IN JERUSALEM, Cappella Romana releases its 21st CD, the WORLD PREMIERE RECORDING of STEINBERG’S PASSION WEEK, following their sold-out world premiere live performances of the work in 2014.

Steinberg’s PASSION WEEK is the last major sacred work composed in Russia after the 1917 Revolution. Alexander Lingas leads Cappella Romana’s intrepid singers in Steinberg’s profoundly moving work that extends the musical language of Rachmaninoff ’s All-Night Vigil (“Vespers”). Chants arranged by Rimsky-Korsakov, Steinberg’s teacher and father-in-law, reveal earlier layers of the tradition. Extensive 2,800-word scholarly essay by artistic director Dr. Alexander Lingas (City University London, University of Oxford) included, with full texts in Church Slavonic and translations in English. Cappella Romana is produced since 2004 by GRAMMY™ Award-winner Steve Barnett.

DELUXE LIMITED-EDITION 200-GRAM AUDIOPHILE VINYL RELEASE COMING IN MAY 2015.
