Chant of Grottaferrata - Φαεινός ως ήλιος.

Medieval Byzantine Chant from the Basilian Monastery of Grottaferrata. Title: "Φαεινός ως ήλιος" (Radiant as a sun) Kontakion for St. Bartholomew of Grottaferrata ~ The Basilian Monastery of the Mother of God (Theotokos) was founded by St Nilus the Younger in the town of Grottaferrata, 20 km south of Rome, in 1004. It was a Byzantine Rite abbey following the Rule of St Basil and was (uncommonly) under the See of Rome and remained so after the Great Schism. Two of its abbots, St Nilus the Younger and St Bartholomew the Younger, are saints of both the Latin and the Greek Church as they both died before the schism. In later years one of its most illustrious abbots in commendam was Cardinal Bessarion, himself a Basilian monk. From the day of its foundation to modern times the Monastery has remained in Byzantine rite, despite being so near to Rome and despite the uniformity of rite imposed by several councils - most notably the Council of Trent. Moreover, due to the loss of contact with the rest of the East and the Basilian Order (which in its vast majority remained Orthodox), the Abbey uses the Byzantine chant as delivered at the date of its foundation, unaffected by later changes that occurred in the east.
