Rachmaninoff. Liturgy

Рахманинов. Литургия

Also known as Rakhmaninov. Liturgiya

An immersive journey into the sacred space of artistic creation. For twelve days, the ancient walls of the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Virgin in Veliky Novgorod became a recording studio, where a young team from St. Petersburg took on the ambitious task of recording Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. The camera captures something almost impossible: the pursuit of acoustic perfection and the encounter between Rachmaninoff’s genius and centuries of prayerful silence. This is a story not only about music, but also about overcoming artistic challenges, technical difficulties, and human doubts. The film builds a bridge between the great legacy of Russian culture and its vibrant, living present.
