{"product_id":"russian-church-singing-orthodox-worship-and-hymnography-001","title":"Russian Church Singing: Orthodox Worship and Hymnography (001)","description":"This comprehensive study is intended to serve not only as a standard reference work but also as the cornerstone and inspiration for future research into the music of the Russian Orthodox Church. As its author emphasizes, the music of the Orthodox Church cannot be understood in purely aesthetic categories, apart from the liturgical context which determines both its context and its function. Accordingly, this first volume examines not only the early history of Russian chant, but also the structure of Orthodox worship and the poetical forms of its hymnography.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0913836591\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0913836591.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Von Gardner, Johann\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
