Oleksa Obriy Piano – Bogoroditze-Kyiv chant (Bortnyanskiy arr.)

Beautiful and beloved melody ” Pid Tvoyu Mulist’ “(For Your Mercy)

That originates somewhere from early Middle Ages in Kyiv …

And always performed around Easter time…

This year Orthodox and Catholic celebrated on the same day…

This piano variation is small call for Unity among Christians…

That divided, unable even agree on Bible events dates….
