Reviews

'… the book makes a firm statement of the importance of Byzantine hymnody and it is an excellent example of such a study. Furthermore, it convinces the reader of the beauty and spirituality of the ocean of Byzantine texts.' Per-Arne Bodin, Journal of Early Christian Studies '… a highly useful guide to the contemporary research on Byzantine liturgy as performed and experienced.' Maria Takala-Roszczenko, Journal of Orthodox Christian Studies
