Moscow, July 1, Interfax - Joint concert of the Synodal Choir and the Sistine Capella was held in Vatican.
Ambassadors from different countries, church hierarchs and other high-ranking guests came to the concert in the Capella, art director of the Moscow Synodal Choir, Russia’s honored artist Alexey Puzakov told Interfax-Religion.
“Works by Palestrina, Sviridov, Metropolitan Hilarion, Bortnyansky, Chesnokov, Ivanov-Radkevich were performed in front of Michelangelo’s The Last Judgment, he said.
After the concert, musicians attended the divine service in St. Peter Cathedral dedicated to the feast of Sts Peter and Paul.

Since you are here…
…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website.
However, resources for editorial are scarce.
In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription.
It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.
Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service,
weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers.
Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible -
Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.
For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little?
A cup of coffee?
It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.
If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month,
they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ,
Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
