If this has been posted previously forgive me. Here are two excerpts fron a concert in Helsinki on July 28, 2005 with the 80 years young Nicolai Gedda. I think they are astounding.
The first is How glorious is our Lord on Sion. I believe by Bortinansky but am not certain.

The second selection is The Lord's Prayer (composer unknown)

Both, (of course) from the Orthodox Liturgy. Some of the most beautiful choral music, in my opinion.
Enjoy the music, the remarkable state of
Gedda's voice, and the beautiful images
