Alan Hovhaness: “Prayer of St Gregory”, op.62b
アラン・ホバネス：「聖グレゴリーの祈り」
TIME COMMITMENT: 4 minutes
Performed in warm, cushioned tones, this celestial, sinuous invocation in B-flat minor strides confidently with a pace of ancestral maestoso. The modal version for chorale-like organ (or harmonium) features Wynton Marsalis’s distinctly melismatic playing. But it’s also worth exploring the less fluid variant for strings.

A REFLECTION
The Armenian Grief is a shoreless sea,
An enormous abyss of water
My Soul swims mournfully
On this huge and black expanse
