The singing of these verses from Psalms 134 and 135 is the most majestic and grand moment in the Orthodox All-Night Vigil. Alexander Nikolsky’s (1874–1943) setting, with its opening fanfares, and rich choral orchestration, is one of the most festive in the Russian choral literature of the early 20th century. It foreshadows the setting of this same text in Rachmaninoff’s All-Night Vigil, written a few years later .
