| The Orthodox Church celebrates Pascha with great solemnity and prepares believers for this great feast through strict observance of Lent, or the Great Fast. However, the preparation begins three weeks earlier.
The hymns of the Lenten Triodion are sung during that period of time, when the Church reminds us of the parables of the Publican and Pharisee, the Prodigal Son, and also of the expulsion of our forefathers from the Paradise and about the Last Judgement, thus calling Christians to repentance. This period comes to the end by the remembrance of the raising of righteous Lazarus by Christ. This miracle gives people hope for the general resurrection, and the monastic choir beautifully conveys this hope to us.
Colour booklet 4 pages.
