He also left behind numerous choral works. While many of these works fall into three categories—religious works, folk song arrangements, and original compositions—they all possess a beauty underpinned by exquisite craftsmanship. Many of the pieces included on this album are based on Russian folk songs, yet these simple melodies have been transformed into magnificent a cappella choral works that make full use of the lower registers. The album also includes works written in unusual formats, such as “Ave Maris Stella,” accompanied by a four-hand harmonium duet, and “Slava” (meaning “Glory”), accompanied by a two-piano, eight-hand duet, offering a glimpse into Lyadov’s ingenuity.\nThe Russian Conservatory Chamber Choir is an ensemble founded in 2016 by Ivan Nikiforchin. Together with the Russian Conservatory Chamber Orchestra, it maintains a broad repertoire centered on Russian music composed in the 20th and 21st centuries.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toccata Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374672994593,"sku":"4589538770372","price":2421.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538770372.jpg?v=1787632279","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538770372","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
