Sergei Rachmanioff's Sacred Concerto W molitwach neussypajuschtschuju Bogorodizu (The Theotokos, ever-vigilant in praying) was composed in 1893 for four-voice mixed choir. It was his first contribution to the repertoire of the Russian Orthodox Church. The text is derived from the Feast of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary, the counterpart to the Roman Catholic Assumption Day. In accordance with the standards of the Orthodox Church, Rachmaninoff set it a cappella. This new edition presents the original church Slavonic text in Latin transcription, as well as in a singable German translation. It also contains an English pronunciation table.
