«Ακατάληπτον Εστί» - KABARNOS - ΒΥΖΑΝΤΙΝΗ ΜΟΥΣΙΚΗ

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).
