A moment of silence, prayer and light was offered to the public through the recent release of a carol with a deep spiritual charge, made by Priest Alin Mazăre, together with musician Ovidiu Lipan Țăndărică, pianist Miriam Alice Vultur, soprano Paula Crișan and violinist Radu Herze.
The project was musically and artistically coordinated by Ovidiu Lipan Șăndărică, who conceived this endeavor as a sincere encounter between music and prayer, in a sacred space, with deep respect for the Romanian carol tradition and authentic Christian values.
The carol was made with the blessing of Andrei Andreicut, the Metropolitan of Cluj, Maramureș and Sălaj, being thought of as a musical gift dedicated to the Nativity and to all those who value faith, tradition and spiritual communion.
The video was shot in the Church of the Holy Archangels, in a traditional setting, with a sober and bright aesthetic, which supports the message of peace, quietude and return to the essentials. The sacred space thus becomes an integral part of the artistic message, amplifying the emotion and authenticity of the moment.
The producer of the project is Radu Groza, the initiator of this artistic endeavor made out of the desire to offer the public a landmark of peace and meaning, in a time when the need for inner recovery is more present than ever.
“This carol was born from a need for inner peace and truth. I thought of it as a prayer said through music, at a time when people are increasingly in need of peace and meaning.
The musical-artistic coordination of this project was a deep responsibility for me, because we wanted to preserve the purity of the Romanian carol and respect for the sacred space in which it was sung. It is not an ordinary artistic act, but a gift – for the Nativity and for all those who believe in the power of faith, tradition and communion between people“, said Ovidiu Lipan Tăndărică.
The carol and video are available on the artists’ official channels as an invitation to silence, inner peace and the shared joy of the Christmas Holidays.
