A Hymn of the Bulgarian Orthodox to the Holy Theotokos

  1. Wonderful. I do like eastern liturgical music. It is interesting to note that western Chant was once much more like it.

    The first of these two recordings is a very early style of the popular Latin Rite Kyrie 'Orbis Factor'

    Note the eastern elements

    This is a Mozarabic piece. These are extremely ancient and seem, to me at least, very eastern
