Божественна Літургія Івана Золотоустого. Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom

Oksana Bihun's setting of the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom captures the profound spiritual experience of this ancient Eastern Orthodox service. Sung in Ukrainian, the text invites reflection on the sacred mysteries of faith, with the composer's music aiming to enhance the contemplative and prayerful atmosphere. The work is scored for a large choir, offering rich possibilities for both SSAATTBB and SATB divisi textures. Bihun's interpretation aims to evoke a sense of awe and devotion, suitable for services where the sacred texts are central to the liturgical expression. This setting provides a powerful and moving musical framework for the familiar prayers and chants of the liturgy.
