I didn't realize Moscow was turning 879 this year. Nice that Patriarch Kirill was there for the Zaryadye concert hall event. Our parish choir sang something from a Moscow service last month, brought back memories of visiting years ago.

Moscow really has a rich history, 879 years is not a little. I am glad that Patriarch Kirill was present in Zaryadye, they always hold nice events there. Last year, our choir sang "Many summers" at a similar city celebration here in Varna, people were very happy.
