It is good that Metropolitan Barsanuphius served in the Vladimir Cathedral. There are always such beautiful choirs there. I wonder how many people gathered on a weekday?

I remember the last time I was in the Vladimir Cathedral the choir really did sound exceptional. On a weekday it’s surprising how many people still come—must have been a good turnout if Ksenia’s wondering.

I am glad for the citizens of St. Petersburg that Metropolitan Varsonofiy served precisely in the Volodymyr Cathedral. In Poltava, we also like it when the choir sings in a special way, this is a completely different prayer. And on weekdays, you say, there were many people?

I was there that same weekday morning and you're right, the choir was spot on, especially the "It is Truly Meet." Surprised me too how full the nave got by the Gospel. Ksenia, did you make it inside or were you just passing by the square?

Андрей Попов

Yes, in the Vladimir Cathedral the choir is truly one of the best in the city, the voices are always even. On a weekday, probably two or three hundred people gathered, no less - I was just passing by after my shift and saw it. Do you go there often?
