Negative Positive
Title: Secular selection and performance
Review: This recording does not compare to "Sacred Treasures" or "Orthodox Shrines of the Russian North - Tikhvin Monastery" which are excellent examples of sacred Russian Orthodox singing. I sing in a Russian Orthodox Choir and feel that "Ancient Echoes" provides a poor window to Orthodox Spirituality, both in view of the selection and the performance. Such a presentation as recorded on this CD would not be found in any Orthodox monastry.
Is the review positive or negative?
