About
Inspired by the great All-Night Vigil setting by Rachmaninoff, Sheehan’s composition expands the genre with full settings of Psalms, each of which expresses a full range of human emotion.
Vespers also features virtuosic vocal concertos, including the first for basso profundo in English, sung by the great American basso profundo Glenn Miller. Music that projects a vision of hope and light for all.
The Saint Tikhon Choir also recently recorded a collaboration on Naxos with three other choirs and the Orchestra of St. Luke’s conducted by Leonard Slatkin, for which they received a GRAMMY® nomination.
