Kratima, mode 1. What is this choir? Very good execution.

Christ is Risen

The execution is identical in both recordings except for tempo and pitch. One of them is probably artificially slowed down/ sped up due to these being the only differences. This performance is also very much in the style of the aforementioned choir.

Truly he is Risen!

Don't know... I'm not convinced. Example:

At the end of the video (5:30) it is stated that the kratima is "chanted by the Orthodox Byzantine Choir". I suppose it meant to say the "Orthodox Ecclesiastical Byzantine Choir", which is directed by Michalis Makris. Most likely the recording is taken from this CD (last track).
