After studying
at the St. Petersburg
Conservatory, Semyon
Panchenko (1867-1937)
devoted much of his time
to composition. The
Beatitudes is a
homophonic settign taken
directly from his Liturgy
of St. John Chrysostom.
These words of Jesus from
the Gospel of Matthew are
set simply, using dynamic
and harmonic turns to
illuminate the text. In
both Russian and English,
this work is appropriate
for general use
throughout the church
year.
