Great Russian Music
This post first appeared on Russia Insider
The Russian liturgy is, at times, simply astonishing in its power and grandeur.
Don't forget to turn on captions.
Listen To This Amazing Russian Orthodox Christian Great Litany! After the opening proclamation, the Great Litany is chanted. This litany begins every liturgical service of the Orthodox Church, as well as virtually all sacraments and special services. It is the all-embracing prayer of the Church for everyone and everything. It consists of petitions to which the people respond: Lord have mercy.

Putin was brought into the Russian Orthodox Church by his mother so he could be baptized as a baby. The priest told her that day was the feast of St. Michael and suggested Michael as his name. But she told him she had already decided on Vladimir in honor of his father.
And now you know the rest of the story. ;)

True. (I have never learned to appreciate ballet.)
And nothing beats a Russian choir.

'Subversion of popular music' is a good yahoo search. Henry Ford:
Popular Music is a Jewish monopoly. Jazz is a Jewish creation. The mush, the slush, the sly suggestion, the abandoned sensuousness of sliding notes, are of Jewish origin.
Monkey talk, jungle squeals, grunts and squeaks and gasps suggestive of cave love are camouflaged by a few feverish notes and admitted to homes where the thing itself, unaided by the piano, would be stamped out in horror. Girls and boys a little while ago were inquiring who paid Mrs. Rip Van Winkle’s rent while Mr. Rip Van Winkle was away.
