Moscow Patriarchal Choir of Christ the Saviour CathedralConductor
Ilya TolkachevAbout
It is highly symbolic that the Moscow Patriarchal Choir has devoted itself to this task as the Christ the Saviour Cathedral is itself a reflection of political developments and their consequences for the Russian Church. Consecrated in 1883 as a new centre for the Russian Church (under the musical direction of Rimsky-Korsakov and Balakirev), the building was blown up under Stalin’s rule (he had plans for the construction of a gigantic Soviet palace on the same site) and reconstructed according to the original plans in the 1990s during the era of perestroika, thanks to donations by the Russian people. Today, the cathedral is the seat of the Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kyrill and the centre and symbol of the reinvigorated Russian Church.
