about

buying this album you are support the Ukraine refugees in Georgia, the all money from all sales of my music on bandcamp goes directly to humanitarian foundation "Choose to Help" in Tbilisi on clothes, food and other helps.

"Stichera to Boris and Gleb" is a part of service to these first russian saints martyrs who were killed in Kiev by their brother in XI century. In XVI century Theodor Christian composed the music in znamenny chant style to the one of texts written before by unknown author.

text of this stichera in russian:

Придите, новосвященные русские соборы, и смотрите, как без вины суд принимает мученик Борис: копием ребра его пробеде́ны и крови пролитие сотворе́но от наущения дьявола.
Глеб же от того же брата, Святополка, словно агнец, заколот был и между двумя колодами положен был.
Сии же венчаются венцом нетленным, а он - без памяти погиб.
Сии же в мире прославляемы, а он - в геоне вечно мучится.
Сии же, Христа бога молите о душах наших!

dedicated to people of Ukraine with prayers on victims and refugees
