Slavic Wonders
Feasts & Saints in Early Russia, Poland, & Bohemia
Mysterious chants, joyful hymns and magnificent choral works mingled with tales of folk heroes, Slavic Wonders includes stunning 12-part Baroque motets from the Russian Orthodox tradition, medieval Latin chants for Slavic saints and powerful double-choir works from the Polish Renaissance. With repertoire and a stage presence hailed by presenters and audiences as “ethereal and captivating”, and a vocal blend and range called “supernatural” by the critics, The Rose Ensemble has presented this program to capacity crowds across the U.S. and Europe.
