Troparia & Kontakia of Sunday and the Temple

from Early baroque Liturgy during the reign of Peter the Great by Chronos Ensemble

/

about

The Sundays Troparion and Kontakion in the fourth Tone are most likely anonymous compositions (RGB 879); the Troparion and Kontakion of the Nativity of Mary are my own polyphonic settings of the Znamenny chant, which I composed by analogy with very elaborate continuous polyphony from Yaroslavl (GIM 872).

lyrics

Sunday Troparion: When the women disciples of the Lord Learned from the angel the joyous message of Your resurrection, they cast away the ancestral curse And elatedly told the Apostles: Death is overthrown. Christ our God is risen, Granting the world great mercy.

Troparion of the Blessed Virgin’s Nativity: Thy holy Nativity, O virgin Birth-giver of God, hath proclaimed joy unto all the universe; for from thee is risen the Sun of Righteousness, even Christ our God. And having destroyed the curse, he hath bestowed a blessing; and having brought Death to naught, he hath given unto us life eternal.

Sunday Kontakion: As God, my Saviour and Redeemer, rose from the tomb, and delivered the earth-born from their chains. He has shattered the gates of Hades, and as Master,He has risen on the third day.

Glory... Both now and ever...

Kontakion of the Blessed Virgin’s Nativity: From the reproach of childlessness, and Adam and Eve from the corruption of death, at thy holy Nativity, O All-pure One. This do thy people celebrate, being redeemed from the guilt of transgressions, when they cry unto Thee: The barren giveth birth to the Birth-giver of God and the Nourishes of our Life.
