Grammy Award Nomination, 2024 – Best Choral Performance
Rachmaninoff: All-Night Vigil
Steven Fox, conductor (The Clarion Choir)
The Clarion Choir and its Artistic Director Steven Fox make their Pentatone debut with a recording of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s choral masterpiece, the All-Night Vigil. The All-Night Vigil is an evening service that gradually moves towards daybreak, symbolizing the Resurrection of Christ. This message of light and hope emanating from the darkness is both universal and very topical in the troubled world we find ourselves in.
On this recording, many of the movements are preceded by the original Kyiv and Znameny chants on which Rachmaninoff based his composition, adding another layer to this mesmerizing piece.
"One goes through a journey with a work of this magnitude. There were a few parts of the piece that I did not fully appreciate as a student; now they are some of my favorite parts. Conversely, there are parts of the piece that I believe I performed well as a student, but now I struggle with. Perhaps the more one performs the piece, the more one sees in it, and the more challenging it becomes. But, for that reason, I hope that this recording is not an endpoint for Clarion, but another step in the journey with this work."
