Our Take

The USSR Ministry of Culture Chamber Orchestra, led by the enigmatic conductor Polyansky, takes on Tchaikovsky's Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom in their latest offering. This ain't your grandma's church service, folks.

From the opening notes of "Bless the Lord, O My Soul," it's clear that this ain't your average Sunday morning hymn. Polyansky and his choir bring a raw, unfiltered energy to this sacred work, infusing it with a sense of urgency and drama that will have you reaching for the nearest candle to light.

The Bortniansky Choir, with their angelic voices and impeccable intonation, are the real stars of the show here. Their haunting harmonies and otherworldly beauty will transport you to a higher plane, where the vodka flows freely and the borscht is endless.

But it's not all serious business here. Polyansky and his crew inject plenty of wit and humor into their interpretations, with playful dynamics and unexpected twists that will keep you on your toes.

In the end, Tchaikovsky's Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those willing to take the plunge, this album offers a unique and exhilarating listening experience that will leave you feeling uplifted and enlightened. So grab your ushanka and get ready to party like it's 1893. Khrushchev would be proud.
