Interesting Singing of the Easter Alleluia
-
Thanks to Robert, I discovered this gem. It's a recording of the Alleluia for Easter Day, sung (in Latin) by an apparently Armenian-French men's schola from St-Jean des Matines, complete with an Armenian Chozn.
VERY interesting. I have never heard the chant quite like this! -
The choir also appears on this CD. The Amazon description says the recordings were made between 1928 and 1936.
