This is one of the most beautiful renditions of the Hymn of Cassiani, the beloved hymn chanted on the evening of Holy Tuesday and the morning of Holy Wednesday, sung by the women of the choir of St. Tikhon’s Monastery (Waymart, Pennsylvania) in 2014, conducted by Benedict Sheehan.

The music is a Bulgarian chant arranged by Fr. Stefan Meholick.

Today is the day of the Lord’s betrayal, a day dark and dolorous, which is why the Holy Church marks it on par with the day of the Lord’s death, with the seal of fasting throughout the whole year.
