Perhaps the Church\u2019s strict guidelines for liturgical music put him off\u2014no instruments were allowed, and clear intelligibility of the text was required. As a result the Vigil is for <i>a cappella <\/i>choir, and much of the writing is homophonic. <i>Bogoroditse Devo <\/i>begins simply, with quiet awe. At the words \u201cblessed art thou among women\u201d the music becomes more expansive, adding a counter-melody (played here by muted trumpet and trombone), and reaching an heroic climax (\u201cthou hast brought forth the Saviour\u201d), before returning to the calm of the opening. The Vigil is often known as the Vespers, but in fact <i>Bogoroditse Devo <\/i>marks the end of the Vespers section. Matins follows, announced by <i>Slava v v\u00efshnikh<\/i> <i>Bogu<\/i>, the Short Gloria\u2014a text based on the words that the Angels sang to the shepherds. Again the movement starts very simply, repeating a straightforward melody; but it is notable for Rachmaninov\u2019s characteristic use of bell-tolls, set to the word <i>Slava <\/i>(Glory). These become increasingly insistent, eventually taking over and reaching an epic ringing climax, before the movement ends with a hymn-like prayer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Parts included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Score<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trumpet in E-flat<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trumpet 1 in B-flat<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trumpet 2 in B-flat<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trombone 1<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trombone 2<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Trombone 3 (Bass)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tuba<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">Purchasing this product entitles you to download it three times.
